What to put when it's not a typo or a grammar error but still an error? (Resolved)

So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

Hello, I was reading a book for a review and I noticed an error in the formatting of the dialogue, and I made note of all the pages that I found that error. When it was time to report the errors, I wasn't sure if it could be considered as one and it was said below the text box that I should've put on anyways and put a note in it but not consider as an error. My editor said I breach the guidelines by doing so, and now I'm confuse on how what I should've done.

It's impossible to say without see thing specific example of the alleged error verbatim.

Hi, I have an example here “ Just pretend you’re only talking to one person.
That’ll help you with the stage fright.””
The dialogue would end and then the next sentence in the same dialogue would be as if starting a new dialogue or a paragraph.

Hi,

Thank you for the inquiry. If there are formating errors, and they affect your enjoyment of the book, you can mention this within your review.

Thank you.
Melissa.

Insofar as the word 'should' even has meaning, then we must say that the past is exactly as it should be, everything that happened should have happened, and everything that should happen will happen
