typo

I have submitted many typos over the years. I am wondering if Faithlife would receive what is not so much a typo as an improvement. I am thinking of cases where an author is clearly referencing a particular bible verse, but, since he doesn't state the reference, it doesn't show up in cited by.

Would FaithLife want us to submit these as typos?

Josh--

I'm not sure how to answer that because I'm not clear on what you mean. Could you give me a specific example?

Here is a quote from Lewis, but there is not attribution as to the reference, so it doesn't show up in cited by tool

If we are trying to do His will we are obeying the commandment, ‘Thou shalt love the Lord thy God.’ He will give us feelings of love if He pleases. We cannot create them for ourselves, and we must not demand them as a right.

C. S. Lewis, Mere Christianity (New York: HarperOne, 2001), 132–133.

Sometimes these kinds of references are clear cut, but they aren't always. Sometimes a "quote" could be from any number of references or sources. And even when the source material might be clear, the author may or may not have been thinking of the reference at all... It may be taken completely out of context.

Thanks Josh. Typo reports would not help in this case because it's beyond the scope of our current standard practices.

While beneficial, it's unlikely that this request will get implemented as it would require a mostly manual analysis to identify every uncredited quotation in a resource, identify it as a Bible reference, and then connect to a Bible reference.

This typo still needs to be fixed from turek's I don't have enough faith to be an atheist. I've submitted several times but haven't seen it fixed yet. This is one though there have been others.
