author search in book details panel
when you click on the author in the book details panel it does a search in wiki.

i been looking for the option to change it so that it searches in calibre like it does with the series.

can any one point me in the right direction and is possible?

Alt-A (AKA Similar Authors) or Right click the record (line): Similar: Authors

Also Quick search
Click in the desired books column (in this case, Authors): tap 'Q'
