Trying to add a year in authors.name deletes all the information:

This is not:

I don't see any reason why the module would care. However, it is much better to move that stuff to the "bio" column rather than the Author column. The author name should now be "pure" - i.e. only the name. It is used in selecting the author to create a bio and also in Views.

You know - habits :)

BTW, did you count the characters? That's 260 characters and the default limit in Drupal is 255. Maybe I need to allow a longer form field.
