Series author doesn't disappear

When I created the series The Cambridge History of War a series author was set (undoubtedly due to some mistake on my part). Unchecking "Calculate series auhtor" and resaving the series doesn't remove him, which I'm told it should, so reporting this as a bug.

>1 AndreasJ: I have experienced this same issue multiple times.

Additionally, because series groups are resetting to "core" every time a new title is added to the series, series authors are including ALL authors listed on any compilation that is listed on that series page.

I am noting this here, because I believe there have been, and are, similar, related bugs to this problem... AND there was an earlier "Bug Collector" topic posted, similar to this one. Perhaps we can get the problems more attention, if they are combined.

Please follow this link to an earlier bug ("Unwanted Series Author Added") that did get LT management notice. Perhaps you could repeat your issue there?
