[sword-devel] What happens to verses that fall outside the specified v11n?

The following is pasted from the wiki page
https://wiki.crosswire.org/Alternate_Versification#What_happens_to_verses_that_fall_outside_the_specified_v11n.3F

> During module making, what happens to verses in the source text that fall outside the specified v11n?
>
> There are a variety of v11n schemes which can be specified when you import a module. Based on your selection, the tool will append extra verses to the previous canonical verse that has already been assigned content. Extra verses in a canonical chapter will be assigned to the last canonical verse that has been assigned content. Extra chapters in a canonical book will be assigned to the last canonical verse of the previous chapter that has been assigned content. Non-canonical books will be ignored or cause an error. The content for extra chapters and/or extra verses is appended as text only, without references.

Questions:

- Does this describe only what happens when you use osis2mod ?

- What happens when you use imp2vs ?

AFAICT, for imp2vs, the unexpected extra content is lost during module build

If I am correct, there ought to be a stark warning in the wiki page that emphasises that the appending of unexpected extra verses (or even chapters) only happens when using osis2mod.

Best regards,

David
