Editing the source in the Source Manager to correct the error is the best choice as it allows Brianna to maintain the continuity of the original source while fixing the error. Adding a new placeholder citation or creating a new source with the corrected year would create confusion and potentially lead to inconsistencies in the document. Deleting the incorrect citation would leave the document with an incomplete or missing source.
