In the "Edit your book" page next to the TITLE field there is a drop down tile with numbers from Start to 10, what is that area for?

This is because LT's alphabetical sorting doesn't always ignore articles in titles automatically, especially if the title of a book isn't in the main language of the site. So, if necessary, you can specify the position of the character from which LT should start sorting. E.g. if you have a French copy of La peste, and LT tries to alphabetize it under L rather than P, you can set the Start field to 4 to force LT to sort it on the 4th character (P).

I may have accidently marked my comments of IN HER DREAMS by Jennifer Lynn as 'spam.' If so, I DID NOT wish to make my entry as spam. Please advise as to how I can correct my notation so I can continue with my favorable review.

You do not seem to have marked anything as spam. Only whole works can be labeled spam. Reviews can be flagged, but you have not entered a review.

Please correct your title in Edit Book rather than adding a canonical title. If you edit your title and then click on Recalculate title/author, as the only person with the book, your title will win.

Also, if you want separate tags rather than a mass tag on each book, the tags need to be separated by commas.

the tags need to be separated by commas.

And a space (?)

How do we get the FAQ updated? I've been trying to fix this issue for about 45 minutes.
