Released Sep 15, 2021 - 127.78 KBWorks with firefox 48.0 and later, android 48.0 to 68.*Updated to for the changes to WikiTree.com for Draft SavesSource code released under MIT License
Version 0.3.1
Released Sep 8, 2021 - 127.8 KBWorks with firefox 48.0 and later, android 48.0 to 68.*Updated to handle the new GEDCompare format that is used for GEDCOMS uploaded after 1 Aug 2021 or thereabouts. See this [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1296451/why-has-gedcompare-changed-source-format-to-remove-span-id G2G post]. In the case of a modern format profile with no span ids it will now look for the Source: S* format and should produce the same results as if span ids were used.Source code released under MIT License
Version 0.2.9
Released Jul 29, 2021 - 126.61 KBWorks with firefox 48.0 and later, android 48.0 to 68.*Added various user options:
- Option to omit the country name from locations in narrative events
- If an employment, residence or census fact has a known record type start the narrative event with that. E.g. "In the 1911 census John was living in ..."
- If a census style narrative event starts with just the date then use the full date if known. E.g. "On 2 April 1911 John was living in ..."
- Option to supress certain sources with no date
- Option to supress certain Issues to be checked"Source code released under MIT License
Version 0.2.7
Released Jun 8, 2021 - 124.5 KBWorks with firefox 48.0 and later, android 48.0 to 68.** Fix bug where it would report that there was no sources line if there were no spaces in it (e.g. "==Sources==")
* Add new option for the accessed date in the sources. Linda Petersen pointed out that just saying "(accessed [today's date])" could be misleading, especially on old GEDCOM imports. I do like adding this though - to encourage people to follow the recommendation of including an accessed date in source citations. There are now the following options for "Add an accessed date to citation:" and the default is "Before":
** None: Don't add it
** Unknown: Add "(accessed unknown date)"
** Before: Add "(accessed before [date])". For recent GEDCOMs the date is today. For older format ones it is the date it was imported if known.
** Today: Add "(accessed [today's date])"". The assumption is that you will access each source after running AGC.Source code released under MIT License
Version 0.2.6
Released Jun 3, 2021 - 123.59 KBWorks with firefox 48.0 and later, android 48.0 to 68.*Some minor tweaks made after working on Barron GEDCOM challenge
If a line like this is found it is ignored since the appropriate action was taken on import: "Removed ABT from Birth Date and marked as uncertain"
If a line like this is found then it is removed and an alert is added to the "Issues to be checked" section: "Could not parse date out of ABT JUN 1894."
A blank line is always inserted after the "Research Notes" section and before the Sources. I changed this after accidentally deleting the Sources when deleting the Research Notes after checking the "Issues to be checked"Source code released under MIT License
Version 0.2.5
Released May 31, 2021 - 123.34 KBWorks with firefox 48.0 and later, android 48.0 to 68.** Fix a bug where a line like the below was between the Sources and references lines was removed even when the option "Remove the text that states which gedcom the profile was created from and other standard GEDCOM import verbiage." is not checked.
** WikiTree profile Howell-887 created through the import of family_book_EN.ged on Sep 5, 2011 by [[Picardy-2 | Katherine Picardy]]. See the [http://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:NetworkFeed&who=Howell-887 Changes page] for the details of edits by Katherine and others.
* Rename the option for removing the lines that contain the GEDCOM name and add a note to say this should only be done if fully cleaned up and sourced.
* Changed the removal of the standard GEDCOM verbiage. Now all the standard verbiage is removed, and if the option to remove the text containing the GEDCOM name is NOT checked, then lines are added at the very bottom of the profile (in Acknowledgements) of the form:
** This person was created through the import of Ronalda-four.ged on Nov 10, 2015.
