Arimathea
Hi, Not sure what the problem is but over at Arimathea it's showing a red error, Could someone who understands this template fix this please?
I've come across this via WP:WPCleaner which lists the page as containing errors, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 14:25, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
"I Kings" is what it's complaining about. I'm headed out the door but adding it as a valid alternate book name will fix the issue. Primefac (talk) 14:44, 19 July 2023 (UTC)- I fixed Arimathea, there was no need for a Bibleverse template there anyway. Adding an alternate book name may still be useful if this is a common error.

- Many thanks @Primefac and @Sojourner in the earth for replying and for fixing this error it's greatly appreciated,
- I'll be honest I don't understand the template and didn't know where to even begin in attempting to fix it so I greatly appreciate both of your help today thank you,
- Thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010Talk 16:38, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
Template no longer works properly for at least one mode, possibly many
I had reason to try to call this template recently during unrelated cleanup: Special:MobileDiff/1188429077. Turns out the version cited in the article (New International Version) is hosted at a place that must have changed their html GET structure and site contents since the template was written, because {{bibleverse|Matthew|28|niv}}
, at time of writing, produces Matthew 28, which after a bit of a loading time takes me to a site called Biblica.com (expected per documentation) titled "Genesis 1 – New International Version" (not great) reading "This chapter is not available yet in this translation." (uh oh).
I don't have any particular interest in this topic area, so I haven't tested other translations or hosting services, but some work looks like it needs doing here. Folly Mox (talk) 10:50, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
- Works for me. I get Matthew 28, verses 1–20 when I click on that link. Maybe just a temporary outage, or something more subtle on Folly Mox's end? – Jonesey95 (talk) 16:34, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
- I was experiencing a similar problem when I first saw this post, but I am also now seeing "as expected" behaviour, so I suspect a search algorithm issue on Biblica's end. Which is good, because I really didn't want to rewrite the module code to accommodate it. Primefac (talk) 16:42, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
NWT
Would it be possible to add some of these translations as well?
- American Standard Version
- The Bible in Living English
- The Emphasized Bible
- King James Version (Red Minion)
- The Kingdom Interlinear Translation of the Greek Scriptures
- New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (1984 and 2013 Edition)
Would be handy for the Series on Jehovah's Witnesses, where none of the scriptures can be linked through {{bibleverse}} as to compare these scriptures. We made a template with all these versions linking to each version for our own wiki, which could be used here as well, but this version works with a module and ours doesn't.
Hope to hear from you soon! Kind regards, Rodejong 💬 ✉️ 13:37, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
Template produces incomplete referencing
The template outputs Book chapter and verse but does not show the bible version. GraemeLeggett (talk) 09:31, 30 December 2023 (UTC)

Vulgata Clementina
Noting this is at Wikisource:la:Vulgata Clementina but not yet supported here; does LA WS need to do anything to make this possible? Jim Killock (talk) 19:56, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
