BUG: Topic Guide "Aalar" and other redirects

1. Open a Topic Guide

2. Enter Aalar

3. It redirects to Immer (town)

4. The topics.logos.com section shows no results despite the fact that there is an entry for Aalar. If redirects are going to drop topics.logos.com entries then the record produced by Admin initially must clearly redirect the user to update the other record. Alternatively, the topics.logos.com section should show the entries under all names.

The issue maybe is that the existing entry on Aalar doesn't have Immer as Alternative Label - and there exists an entry for Immer which is completely empty.

Logos probably retrieves this - and since it isn't told that Aalar is an alternative, the retrieval stops. And I'm glad it recognizes there's nothing to see here.

I wonder if the best way to fix this would be to create the alternative Label Aalar in this Immer (Place) entry, or to delete this entry and put Immer as an alternative label into the Aalar entry. Maybe either works fine.

At least it seems that the Immer (Place) entry takes priority in stopping the retrieval, even though you updated the Aalar topic entry:

OT Note: There seems to be considerable confusion about who or what Immer was meant in the key passage you put in five years ago: the reference you gave, 1 Esdras 5:36 as translated in RSV / NRSV seems to relate to a person named Immer. The town Immer is noted in (what may be substantially the same text) Ezra 2:59 and Neh. 7:61.

Yes, 5 years ago Logos had almost no disambiguation. They have changed on that and I need to go back and adjust ... when things are working well enough to satisfy me.
