I'm getting more and more comfortable with using Calibre,but I'm stumped with this.

In the "edit metadata individually" window, how do I delete incorrect entries in the Author field? I have some typos, misspellings, and just wrong information that I would like to clear out. I see that I can delete series entries one at a time. Is there something similar for the author field?

Thank you

You can delete Series (WARNING: this affects ALL books with that series name) from the Series entry in the Tag Browser

You cal also rename any tag, Author, Series... in the tag browser and all appropriate book are good to go. Rename will auto combine if the final value exists
