What if the owner of a profile refuses to update a profile even when supplied with book reference to whom the father is?

I have spent 7 years researching my father's line and the owner of George Hugh Drury refuses to update his profile so show that his father is John De Drury who's son John called himself George and there is an entry taken as his last will and testament in the book Descendants of John Gamage of Ipswich, Mass pg 56 clearly stating that his father is John De Drury.  

 

Please Advise Thank You

  You can always update the profile yourself or add the father. 

  If you have not enough rights to do so. You can ask a curator to do so.

  There can be several reasons why a manager refuses to do so. One can be that the manager is not longer active. 

  Contact me via a PM if you need help with it. Or do it via the "Curator help me" discussion.

  Another step is to create a profile with the correct father/son line. And then merge the profiles.
