    Have you tried to message the user and inquire why they keep changing it? I'd start there with the specific user who is making the changes.

    1. One of the drawbacks to working in an open-edit collaborative tree is that anyone can edit anything.

    2. One of the advantages of working in an open-edit collaborative tree is that anyone can edit anything.

    Number 1 applies to users like her who have mistaken one person for another and keep coming back to make the same erroneous "correction".

    Number 2 applies to you. You can reduce the "lather, rinse, repeat" aspect by attaching every source, writing down your reasoning, and using the (still-newish) Alert Note feature. Also, if there were two people of very similar identity, you can find or create a profile for the second person, and make sure that all of the sources and relationships are attached to the correct person (and detached from the incorrect one).
