Reviews, tags for wrong book

Did a tag mash for mystery and science fiction, only to find The Oxford New Russian Dictionary as the top result. I checked the editions, which all seem to be correct. I am guessing it was combined with another book at some point and when separated was left with these tags. The review is for Small Great Things, which does not fit the tags either. (The book also shares an isbn with another book that also doesn't fit the tags)

Is there any way to fix this? I know we can't change users' tags, so I'm guessing no? Reviews can be flagged, but what flag would I choose for this review?

This does not explain all the tags, but that review is in a member's copy of the dictionary. Perhaps you could contact staff to message the member.

I assume that the tags have a similar explanation. Tags would not stay on the work when the books are separated.

Note the disambiguation notice. My guess is that the ISBN has been reused multiple times, and that there was a bad import that the member didn't catch. However, I cannot verify that notice. Searches on both the ISBNs on the dictionary only bring up that book.
