[ACK] Bug: New Bible Dictionary often missing from Factbook

I tried a number of topics, and on most occasions the New Bible Dictionary was missing from Factbook even though it was present in Topic Guide:

  • Church
  • Capernaum
  • Joppa
  • People of God

The NBD is not always missing. It appears for the Factbook entry for Apostasy, Miracle and Pithom, for example.

On a separate issue, the Topic Miracle and the Preaching Theme Miracles need to be merged in Factbook.

    For what it's worth, I get the same results as Mark here. I also have NBD prioritised as my second -highest after Anchor Bible Dictionary.

    I do get it for Joppa

    but not for Capernaum or Church, and i can see we have it in our alignment data. I don't see an entry in NBD for People of God (you could argue that other articles should be aligned to this, but that makes it a different case).

    I'll submit a bug. Can you confirm that you don't have it for Joppa?

    Sorry. I was wrong about that. I am seeing it for Joppa.

    And with People of God you're right, but there's still a problem. For People of God the dictionary that's missing is the New Dictionary of Biblical Theology.

    I also noticed that for "Joseph" both NDT and NDBT are missing, but BEB is also absent.
