Story listing is for a Donald Duck comic. Is this being done by a bot or something? I don't see how a person could make this mistake and it is not the first time this sort of thing has happened in recent days. Maybe just look at the comic and compare it to the info before posting it?

The info below the scan is from GCD.  As I don't use GCD, I'm not 100 % sure how GCD info is attached to the post, but there must occasionally be simple errors clicking the correct GCD info. That seems to be what has happened here. Let's not pile opprobrium on the poster.  Mistakes happen.  I trust someone will correct the info and add the correct GCD page, although I think Robb probably knows more about this book than GCD.

Clearly, the GCD detailed book information for Dell Four Color Comic #238 (Donald Duck in Voodoo Hoodoo) somehow was erroneously placed together with this book, Fox Features' Animal Crackers #31. I assume that one of the Administrators here will be able to replace the incorrect page with the proper one.  And, yes, I have more information on Animal Crackers # 31 than is listed on GCD's detailed information page.  And, indeed, as I have a membership account on GCD, which qualifies me to make additions to the pages, I already have tried to add some of the missing information two years ago; but, unfortunately the system did not allow me to do that.  I contacted the administration about the problem.  They said that they were extremely busy right then, but said that they would fix that problem as soon as they could get to it.  It is two years later, and I have contacted them about 3 or 4 times since, but they still haven't corrected the situation.  I have given up hope of being able to add data myself.  Surprisingly, they HAVE actually gotten to make a correction of an error on one book, which I proposed.  But, that is only one of several that I pointed out to them.  They are severely understaffed; but, despite that problem, they are also reticent to allow outsiders to join as operatives.  And even when they do allow that, they are unbelievably slow in allowing those people to start (due to glitches in the system that keep them from being accepted (or getting clearance).  I wonder if it is because in my case, I deal almost exclusively with Funny Animal genre and cartoony Human character comics, and their priorities are always with human character, non comedy comics?  So my issues ALWAYS are very last in line on the back burner, and invariably are forgotten long before time to deal with them might come up.
