Is there a log of my own actions on the site?

I'm trying to track down a possible bug, but I need a log of all my own actions on the site to figure it out. Is such a thing available to users?

(Weird, garbage tags started showing up in my library. Nonsensical combinations of tags, often a dozen or more, added to books. I want to see a log of my own activity to see what could have triggered this.)

Depends on what you had been doing - see if https://www.librarything.com/yourfeed.php may show what you are looking for?

I don't think it shows tagging though...

>1 lipi: Do you have an actual bug report yet? If not, we should close this to keep it off the docket until you do.

To answer your question, and to add to what >2 AnnieMod: says... what sort of activity are you looking to track?

>3 kristilabrie: Well, ideally I'd have a log that tracks addition and removal of tags, so I can point a finger and say "AHA! See! Tags were added to this book, and I didn't do it." (Also, I could use it to track down all the books that were affected, since I have no idea how to do that now.)

I'm not sure what bug report I could possibly file right now except "random tags seem to have been added to some of my books, I don't know when it happened, I don't know why only some books got them, I don't know how to find all the books affected, and I didn't keep track of what they were when I cleaned them up so good luck reproducing it." Didn't seem useful, hence the request for access to a log.

>4 lipi: I don't think there's such a log, but you could export your catalogue and then have 2 sets of data to compare and point out the discrepancy when it occurs.

I'd notice it, if the tags were not the ones I normally use, because I do almost what >5 SandraArdnas: suggests. I export my catalogue and have a script that compares the tags with a list of tags on one of my wikipages: https://wiki.librarything.com/index.php/User:Bnielsen/TagList

Alas, 100% of the time it has caught my own spelling mistakes rather than anything sinister :-)

Could you give some examples of the junk tags so maybe the staff can hunt down when the change happened on your book?
