There doesn't seem to be a method to set a birth year any earlier than 25 in Goodreads. I've contacted support to ask them about this but they're obviously not going to modify it anytime soon.

I also tried to modify the day numbers to match Wikipedia but the system keeps changing the dates — presumably something to do with calendar conversions. So I wound up just removing the dates, putting the correct dates into the bio directly, and adding a link to Wikipedia.

This request is complete.

Please edit the title / subject of your post and add [done] so other Librarians know it is complete.
