Series and number are placed in author column

Hi all,

I Recently dreceived a bunch of vintage books wich were downloaded from gutenberg.
However when i added them to my calibre library the author column now displays the series and number of the book.

Can I easily move this from author to series column?

example:

Title Author series
Koh-I-Noor Lord Lister 0184 empty

thank you in advance ;D

The original file doesn't have an author so calibre recognised the title correct, and placed the 'series order' as author

original filename is: Het einde van Irwin Stanley - Lord Lister 0394.epub

Take look at your Add Books Preferences - of you extract metadata from the file name make sure the Regular expression and filename are consistent.
