Batch fourteen closed it — 2,347 language codes decided, 1,022 carrying Words
of Life. Forty groups leave the gap: 1,653 with nothing becomes 1,613, and the
gap breakdown drops from four situations to three, because "GRN not yet swept"
no longer describes anybody. What is left is 1,429 groups where every pool this
build can reach has been searched, 183 sign languages behind key-gated sources,
and one group with no language code at all.
Two things the sweep exposed. 5fish answers 200 for any path, so its 982 links
were being verified by a status that means nothing there; they are now judged by
where the redirect LANDS — a real code goes to its numbered language page, one
they do not carry is swept to /regions — with both arms proved in band before
any link is classified. And country-gap reads a file that another script
refreshes from the pins, so running them out of order publishes the previous
build's numbers: it said 1,653 while the map said 1,613. It now refuses to write
a table that disagrees with the index the map draws.
Reading the list profile's own screenshot turned up a row for "Undetermined (und)" —
14 people groups — offering two Open Bible Stories links. ISO 639-3 reserves und, mul,
mis, zxx and qaa-qtz for exactly the case where the language is NOT known, so a resource
attached to one is attached to nothing. Telling 14 groups there is Scripture in their
language when the record says the language is undetermined is the single worst thing this
map can do, and it took looking at the page to see it. Door43 publishes 4 entries under
und; 16 pins sit on a special code. All are now excluded at the index.
COVERAGE GOES DOWN, 8,935 -> 8,921 pins with a real URL. That is the right direction: the
14 were false.
The same screenshot showed Dogri rendering "Open Bible Stories Open Bible Stories" —
two links a reader cannot tell apart. 40 languages carry more than one entry under the
same subject, because a language can have more than one independent translation effort.
The owner now disambiguates, and ONLY where it is needed: Dogri reads "Open Bible Stories
(translationCore-Create-BCS)" and "(OBS-TLF)", while a language with one entry is
unchanged.
The list profile also gained the pool it predated. It bundles its own resources.json at
build time, so Door43 never reached it: 49 languages, 63 links. Checked before writing —
120 of its 862 languages already carry a scripture link and those are exactly the 120 the
enriched index has, so nothing there needed correcting, and its curated 862-language scope
is this profile's subject rather than staleness. The enrichment is idempotent: it drops
what a previous run added before re-adding, or a stale title would survive the index
learning to disambiguate.
NOT DONE, DELIBERATELY: the 506 zero-reach rows still never match a COUNTRY filter.
Arclight carries a primaryCountryId that could attribute them, but the only alpha-2 to
alpha-3 mapping in this repo disagrees with itself on 18 countries and cannot resolve 51
of the 168 codes. A wrong attribution would point a real link at the wrong field, so the
behaviour is documented in the table meta instead of guessed at.
Verified: und/mul/mis/zxx absent from the index, the list renders 49 Door43 anchors where
it rendered none, three sampled new links answer 200, and pins, table, deep-link, country
and sign-language probes all still pass.
