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.

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.Andrew Batishko | Logos software developer

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.
