We also searched the Gates Foundation's grant database to see whether it made any additional grants to Malaria Consortium for SMC work, but only saw this grant (grant page available at <a href="https://www.gatesfoundation.org/about/committed-grants">Gates Foundation</a>, "Malaria Consortium").


"Malaria Consortium is implementing and assessing the feasibility of a community-based seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) project in Katsina state, northern Nigeria, with funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Following new World Health Organisation policy recommendations on SMC, this project administers full antimalarial treatments during the malaria season in areas with highly seasonal malaria transmission, to prevent illness among children under five."


"The project’s objectives are:
<ul>
<li>To design, in consultation with key local stakeholders, an appropriate community-based delivery system for SMC in Katsina state based on formative research, which will review aspects relating to feasibility, community acceptability, effectiveness and cost
<li>To launch and execute SMC delivery according to the selected delivery system and collect data on process indicators and costs
<li>To evaluate community acceptability, costs and effectiveness of the delivery system for SMC
<li>To inform future national and state plans for SMC continuation/ scale up by disseminating findings and sharing experiences with key stakeholders"

You can see this working correctly on our site. It is currently footnote 59 at https://www.givewell.org/charities/malaria-consortium

Here is the output of the coverted text, which has three problems:
The @...@ delimiters are still there but do not work;
The space at start and end are converted to

tags in 4.x and not in 3.x;
The HTML entities would be a nightmare for content editors to enter, since they create raw HTML.

&lt;li&gt;It appears that this project may have also been related to another major (&amp;pound;89 million) project that Malaria Consortium was working on in Nigeria called &quot;Support to National Malaria Programme (SuNMaP)&quot;. 
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&quot;Support to National Malaria Programme (SuNMaP) is an &amp;pound;89 million UK aid funded project that works with the government and people of Nigeria to strengthen the national effort to control malaria. The programme began in April 2008 and [ended] in March 2016.

Led by Malaria Consortium, SuNMaP was jointly managed by a consortium, including lead partners Health Partners International and GRID Consulting, with nine other implementing partners. SuNMaP was implemented in 10 states across Nigeria, including Anambra, Kano, Niger, Katsina, Ogun, Lagos, Jigawa, Enugu, Kaduna and Yobe.

SuNMaP worked with the Nigerian government&#039;s National Malaria Elimination Programme (NMEP) to harmonise donor efforts and funding agencies around national policies and plans for malaria control. Project targets were aligned with the National Malaria Strategic Plan and Global Malaria Action Plan. The project aimed to improve national, state and local government level capacity for the prevention and treatment of malaria.&quot; @Malaria Consortium, SuNMaP Final Report@, Pg 38.
&lt;li&gt;&quot;July 2013: Result of SuNMaP study on efficacy of sulphadoxine‐pyrimethamine (SP) for intermittent treatment against malaria in pregnancy published. SuNMaP commences seasonal malaria chemoprevention in Katsina State.&quot; @Malaria Consortium, SuNMaP Final Report@, Pg 16.

On the same page, footnote 81 (and many others) have a real apostrophe in "Consortium’s" which is not converted by the drush command. Enter one of those in a footnote when using version 4.x, and that footnote (sometimes all foonotes) break.

I am grateful that you are so responsive. A look around our content heavy site will show many examples of complex footnotes. Whether we should use a WYSIWYG is an open question, but if Drupal works without one, Footnotes ideally should too.
