Was I not clear?

I think I was pretty clear. Am I wrong? Was I just unclear?

Honestly, sometimes I despair. These people clearly know how to read, they're looking for books - but... I just... I don't know.

(And all this for a post which has long since dropped over the main page by now, so really, the problem is that I care. But I do care! If you don't flair your post, people don't know it's solved, and then they waste their time clicking through. I mean, if they're on page 2 or 3 (sort by "new") anyway they do. Maybe the real problem is they need another mod or two to go through and flair these posts faster.)

In unrelated /r/whatsthatbook questions, does anybody here speak Spanish and would you like to start and then mod a sub for Spanish inquiries? Every week we get a handful, and they largely go unanswered because it's an English-speaking sub. There's clearly a demand, albeit a small one, and I bet if we had a few dedicated searchers and recruited from some Spanish-language subs we could really have something useful for them.
