BUG? Inconsistency in Factbook contents

I clicked on an entry on the left side to open the entry on the right side - as you can see the information shown is quite different. With the similarity of the items covered by the entries, this gives the impression that the data shown for a thing is a bit of a crapshoot.

Where / what did you click?

Dig deeper --> Related --> Temple altar

The sections that are displayed for an entry will vary based on the type of reference(s) for the page. Some types of data will never have any content for a section, so that section is not displayed.

In your situation, the panel on the left contains an LCV topic reference, and the one on the right is a Biblical Thing reference. I would expect these to display different sections.

The problem is that the user simply sees two parallel altar entries treated differently in a way that is unacceptable - it requires arcane knowledge to "decipher". But I suspect, I should be complaining to the data side rather than the coding side. Thanks for your explanation.

Coincidentally, this week I was looking at how a bronze altar was constructed (specifically the horns; Accordance imagery). But this thread caused me to track down, what was tabernacle vs what was temple. Arcaneness appeared ... the Chronical-er added it to the Temple ... or the Kings-er removed it. I wondered if Factbook is designed for such issues.

You are correct, and we are actively engaged in finding ways to make improvements on this problem. You'll have to wait a bit more to see the results of this work.
