eBible was ALREADY one of the two pools this repo checked, and that is what made the
gap invisible: 120 language codes carried an eBible link while the catalogue lists
1,550 translations across 1,239 codes with canonical books. The pool had been read at
roughly a tenth of its content, and ~1,600 people groups were being told "nothing
found" about a published translation in their own language.
COVERAGE: pins carrying a real URL 5,349 -> 6,985, 43.2% -> 56.4%. Language codes
978 -> 2,068. The resource table grows 581 -> 1,497 rows across 1,314 languages. 1,090
of the new codes had no row in the resources table at all, which is why filling gaps
in the existing 862 would have missed most of it.
FILL, NEVER OVERWRITE. An existing scripture_url was curated and verified by an earlier
pass; the catalogue is broad but not hand-checked, so it only supplies a link where
there was none. Where the two disagree, curation wins.
CANON TEST: OTbooks + NTbooks > 0. A deuterocanonical-only publication is not the
66-book canon and is dropped; DC books ALONGSIDE OT/NT are not a reason to drop, since
the 66 are present either way. Measured on this snapshot: 3 rows carry no books at all.
DOMAINS ARE ALLOW-LISTED AFTER A SCREEN, because publicationURL does not always point
at ebible.org. Four domains appear and each was fetched and read: ebible.org (1,242),
png.bible (302, "Papua New Guinea Scriptures"), alkitab.pw (3, an eBible mirror), and
inscript.org (1) — EXCLUDED, because its page establishes no publisher or doctrinal
provenance and an unclear source is left out. A domain not on the list is dropped, so a
future catalogue update cannot introduce a publisher nobody screened.
TWO BROKEN LINKS CAUGHT STRUCTURALLY: nko and nlx publish 'http:///nkoNT/' — a
malformed URL with an EMPTY host, broken in eBible's own data. Requiring a non-empty
host rejects them; a looser check for the 'http://' prefix passes them happily, which
is how a "real" link that resolves nowhere gets shipped. badUrl and badDomain are
counted separately for the same reason — folded together, this hid.
Verified: the CSV parser was diffed against a reference parser across all 1,550 rows,
0 mismatches, so no URL is attached to the wrong language. A seeded random sample of 20
catalogue URLs resolved 20/20 at 200. All five browser probes still pass — pins, table,
deep link, Door43 lift, and 12,379 pins rendered — and the map now shows Papua New
Guinea, Indonesia and South America carrying resource colour where they were solid red.
