Feature Request: Always Show Edit Button

Carter J Parker

Being able to quickly edit information in the source linker is super useful. But currently, you can only edit information marked as "different" from the current source being linked. I've run into situations where information matches the record but needs to be changed anyway. For example, you may notice that something was indexed wrong and needs to be corrected. A location or date/place may have a better or standardized way to write it, but it can't be changed in source linker if it matches what was indexed. Having the edit (pencil) button next to each entry would make attaching much simpler, especially in these kinds of scenarios. Yes, of course, it can always be edited from the details page, but having the edit option more readily available in source linker would certainly make fixing things like this much faster.

I posted my latest take on essentially the same desire just last week.

I like your framing: just give us the pencil so we can fix things while we've already got the source right there at hand.
