Dashes in Verses

Time Posted on July 08, 2010 User Andy Comment 14 comments

When a verse has more than one user it goes through the verification process and we convert all the double dashes ("--") and dashes without spaces around them to (" - "). If you are entering verses, please enter them that way as it will save us time on the verification side. More importantly, the feedback section of the website doesn't handle double dashes correctly. It will also interpret a dash without spaces around it as a hyphen.

So for instance, Ephesians 2:8 should be entered as:

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith — and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God —

and not as:

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—

or:

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith -- and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God--
