It provides bad information when a best answer tag is given an incorrect answer - especially when the correct answer is actually given in the thread. Please provide a way to remove an incorrect answer tag.
I support your suggestion, although I feel that the "Best answer" is often not authoritative - quite often users choose their own thank-you post as the best answer - and since the best answer is chosen by the questioning user, my personal expectation is not that this tag denotes an objectively right answer. But people less active in the forum might think that.

I agree regarding answers that are explicitly incorrect. However, "Best Answer" is misleading. The forum only asks if an answer answered the question. It does not ask if it was the best answer.
Therefore, it is perfectly legitimate for responses to be marked as answers that the OP appreciated even though they are not the very best answer. Notice that even the forum software recognizes this. "Best Answer" changes to "Best Answers" when multiple responses are marked as having answered the question.
Perhaps MVPs should be more involved in marking correct answers, as they would often be better able to identify answers than users unfamiliar with the forums or the Logos software.
Would it be helpful to change the language from "Best Answer" to "Accepted Answer" ?
I like how "Best Answer" sounds, but perhaps that is a bit presumptuous. "Accepted Answer" would more accurately portray what is happening and would potentially be less misleading for new users searching for answers. I do like how "Answer" changes to plural when multiple answers are accepted. To MJ's point, it may be appropriate to grant MVPs the ability to reject accepted answers if a user accepts a clearly incorrect answer that could be misleading to other users within the community.
Community Managers and MVPs do have the ability to remove a comment from "Best Answers"
In the three dots, moderators with such select "Q&A" on any comment tagged as "Best Answer" to adjust the classification.

The slow disappearance of sparklines in revised Factbook/Guide-to-Factbook conversion is a serious loss of functionality. It allowed one to scan the sparkline to see if a particular entry was likely to be useful for your current studies. You could see at a glance its relevance to gospels, Torah, history, apocrypha … in a…
I would find it more useful if rather than a simple count of results (which in truth I don't use) the section would show nnn lemmas in nnn results which I would use to determine how useful to me digging into the original language would be. (The more duplication of lemmas the more apt I am to muddle through it.)
I use Logos primarily for study, but there are times I'll read an entire book. It'd be awesome if there was an integration with Goodreads.com that would allow us to indicate books we're currently reading and those we've finished during the year.
I suggest the answer column be removed from beside the prayer, and moved to the bottom. It takes up a lot of unnecessary space which makes long p;rayers a lot of unnessary scolling.
Integrate Logos with ReadWise (www.ReadWise.io), a service to help readers curate and review their digital highlights. ReadWise was recently endorsed by Tim Challies, and their website says they have thousands of users. I've just begun using the service, but to collect my highlights from Logos alongside my other electronic…
