jenjn79 | 564 comments I found the Mary Shelley links...they were on a different question than the one I got your comment for. I fixed them so they should be fine now. Blame it on the old way GR had you add book/author info. It wasn't always the most accurate thing.

Donna (deety) | 19 comments I still get two Nora Roberts questions when looking at the Mary Shelley trivia here:

http://www.goodreads.com/trivia/autho...

It's odd because those two questions include both authors.

Can trivia only be edited by the original questioner, or is there some way that I can remove extra author links if I come across them again? Right now I only see a link that shows me the edit history of questions.

jenjn79 | 564 comments I fixed those last two. There were author links in two places and I only remembered to fix one spot the first time around. They should all be gone from the MS profile now.

Not sure about the editing...the creator can edit their questions, though.

Donna (deety) | 19 comments Makes sense, thanks for the info.

If you're a librarian, you can edit any question.

Laura | 9 comments I've added a few questions and noticed that one of them shows the wrong author on the "this question is about" section. I get how to change the explanation for the answer to the question, but how do you change the "this question is about" part?


message 57: by [deleted user] (new)

I believe that "this question is about" is a collection of all of the links in the entire question. So if something is wrong there, either one of the links is wrong, or there's a bug that is making that section not match up with the rest of the question.

Laura | 9 comments Is there any way I can change it?

Edit the question, looking for bad links. Some are from the old way of linking books, which didn't work so well.

If you can't narrow it down, you can always replace each link until you find the culprit.

Laura | 9 comments Thanks I think I got it to change.
