I love Mendeley, and have quite a few converts in the graduate program at my university as well. There is one feature however that it sorely needs; that is, when I come across a paper and enter the details into my library, I update the details with the Mendeley database. Sometimes, information contained in the database is incorrect (for example the entry for doi 10.1021/jo01067a619 is very poorly represented in the Mendeley catalogue. The journal title is missing, the authors' names are mis-spelled and the other reference data is incorrect). If you could provide some mechanism for users to submit change requests to the database, then these errors would disappear as users discover them. If this already exists, how could one go about using it?
