Great, thanks. This attachment made it through un-corrupted.
I made some changes (attached):
- Rather than forcing our poor, overworked translators to re-translate
every Wonder help text, I put your texts in a new entry called
"historytext". This also allows for more flexibility in displaying the
information -- however, for now, I simply changed the code to concatenate
the help and history texts.
- Unfortunately, the formatting requirements for text in the rulesets is
rather strict, and is undocumented. One thing, each line needs to end with
a "\" (this also implies no trailing whitespace). I went through every
entry, fixing formatting problems.
- And, I noticed and corrected one content error: the Statue of Liberty
does not stand on Ellis Island, it's on Liberty (formerly Bedloe's) Island.
Finally, I have to ask the ever-complicating legal question: Is your
information un-encumbered by copyrights, etc.? Perhaps you need to add
citations to each entry?
