Text copied from real universities and a news report, placeholders and typos in the demo content

I built the Drupal CMS German Installer (dcgi) to install Drupal CMS and its site templates in German. Its goal is to find problems with the Drupal CMS site templates, their default content and their translation into languages other than English. This issue is one I found while working on it.

Problem/Motivation

While translating the demo content I found these errors in the English original (the demo university is called Eduzin):

• Text copied word for word from other universities: "Founded to accelerate the nation’s industrial revolution, MIT is profoundly American …" and "The Institute’s board of trustees, known as “the Corporation,” …" (content/canvas_page/4c26d116-854e-4cfa-af90-d4cf1a32a91e.yml, lines 869 and 468), the FAQ answer "Stanford provides students the opportunity to engage with big ideas …" (config/canvas.pattern.faq.yml and three pages), and the footer address "University 450 Jane Stanford Way, Stanford, CA 94305–2004" (config/canvas.page_region.vartheme_bs5_educare.footer.yml).
• A news report in a page: content/canvas_page/683c9181-64f9-4a13-8ad9-59cd5d4eb89a.yml ("African and American Studies") contains text such as "Surveys commissioned by Virgin Media O2 found UK adults on average spent four hours per day on their phone …", which has nothing to do with the page title.
• Placeholders: "Sed ut perspiciatis unde omnis iste natus error sit voluptatem accusantium" (content/canvas_page/fefadd5b-d980-4eb9-aa2c-d58f0826bdc1.yml) and the footer email address john.doe@gmail.com.
• Typos and cut-off text: "02. MISSION STSTEMENT" (line 260) and "… across science, technology, health, business, and the humanitie" (line 669) in 4c26d116-….yml.
• The venue "University 10 Jane Street, New York, NA 23367-2478" in the events (for example content/node/2f7304fc-d5da-496a-9cfc-cd365f33c643.yml) has no valid state.

Proposed resolution

Replace the copied texts with original text about the fictional university, use an example.com address instead of john.doe@gmail.com, and fix the typos and the address.

AI disclosure

I used Claude to help draft and shorten this text. The findings are from my own test installation.
