    Whoa!

    I got caught by your statement that some completed books that only contain synopsis & characters. Can you give me an example? Before I will declare a book "finished" on this team, it must meet a mimimum of Title/Author/Description/Editions work. Is the "description" what you called the "synopsis?" If so, then, yes that might be true. We can only expect so much from volunteer workers.

    However, for this specific team, the results have been so much more detailed so I've not come up against that "bare minimum" work level very often.

    The reason I asked for you to give me examples, is that a problem we DO have is that I can't lock the work up. If any other Shelfari member anywhere in the whole world wants to go in and revise stuff after it is done, that is a risk we have to live with for the moment. Shelfari does have the locking feature as a high-priority development goal. Hope they implement it soon!

    Let me know more about what you mean by "merging of editions" and "verifying true editions."

    Sorry I'm asking for so much clarification. In my role as DL today, I've had to deal with a lot of site issues and I'm still kinda fuzzy from all that!

    Thanks so much for your work on the clean-up team,

    Noticed that you're a fan of Italo Calvino...I've been given 'If on a Winter's Night a Traveler' Do you think that it's worth reading it? What are his other books like?
