It’s not so much an error, but a warning, as not all information the format 
needs is supplied. There is no thing like a boolean field (except for %s, but 
that’s somewhat different). You can just file it manually. Or you can force the 
filing (which you can initiate from the filing error window). Or, probably the 
best solution, you can change your format to use %p, which uses the Editor 
field when the Author field is empty.
