I notice in the exported file getting dodgy things from this page - https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/A._E._Housman

    "A. E. Housman": [
        "The house of delusions is cheap to build, but draughty to live in, and ready at any instant to fall.",
        "Most men are rather stupid, and most of those who are not stupid are, consequently, rather vain.",
        "Loveliest of trees, the cherry nowIs hung with bloom along the bough.",
        "And silence sounds no worse than cheersAfter earth has stopped the ears.",
        "Hope lies to mortalsWas never mine."
    ],

it seems to be missing lines in some "Hope lies to mortalsWas never mine" should be a four line poem for instance.

I also notice that one reliable way to find import errors in the exported data is to look for the string patter "[a-z][A-Z]" (that is, a lower case letter directly followed by an upper-case one without a space in between)
