Claude Lalumière (cldllmr) | 8 comments I would like to lodge a complaint against user/librarian Lou Beauregard, regarding the Tesseracts anthology series.

I edited one of these volumes and have contributed to several more. I have firsthand knowledge of these books. This user keeps making erroneous corrections, mislabelling the titles, removing official subtitles, and removing contributors. She keeps time and again reinstating these mistakes. I have tried to contact her directly, but her settings don't allow other users to send her messages.

The entries for volumes 9 and up are now all inaccurate, and I'm tired of fixing them only to have this Lou Beauregard reintroduce her erroneous corrections every time.

Is there any way to resolve this?

Thank you.

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments The best thing to do is send a email to GR Support using the contact link which is found at the bottom of the page under the Help option with details.

Edit: In future it can help to add notes to the edit page explaining why some thing set a particular way. In addition GR has standards for how titles etc should be displayed

Claude Lalumière (cldllmr) | 8 comments I've tried twice now via the help/contact form, but I will now try that email address. Thank you so much to you both!

I've gone and corrected Volume #9. Hopefully it will stay that way.

Thanks.
I doubt it will last, though. I'm a librarian also, and a GoodReads Author. Every time, I correct Lou Beauregard's mistakes, she changes them right back. I wish I could contact her and try to reason it out, but her account doesn't allow messages.

It's a very frustrating situation.

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments The best thing to do is just leave them alone and let GR PTB review and sort it out.
