  4. Fnaf World

    In 2016, creator Scott Cawthon introduced fnaf world as a fun RPG-themed spin-off that brought a new dimension to the franchise. The RPG format let fans connect with characters like Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy in a way they hadn't been able to before. The game focused on combat and exploration instead of just surviving.

  5. How 'pages remaining' are calculated

    I had a bad experience using the site today. I found the article I wanted but when the system took me to the newspaper I couldn't find the specific article. I then seemed to run down my page view allowance of 40 pages in no time at all. I think the page view option should just charge once a page is selected and printed. Any chance of a refund this time as the system didn't even send me to the correct newspaper page.

  7. Web Site performance and OCR

    Firstly I think you are doing a great thing with this archive; good job!
    However my experience of trying to contribute to your project in a small way and correct the plethora of errors which your very basic OCR generates in the articles I am researching has been very frustrating. Reviewing and correcting a few thousand words is taking hours when it should take maybe only an hour if the performance of the website was quicker and if the user interface for editing had been better designed. In Microsoft Word or some similar software I can see all the errors…

  8. Save a single article

    I have been reading for a couple of years that you hope to make it possible to save a single article instead of a whole page but I haven’t seen any progress in providing this, are you actually going to provide this option? it is why I let my subscription lapse, I would rejoin if this was sorted.

  10. Search for a phrase is often ignored

    When I search for a phrase, for example "W. Hunter" to get only hits for "W. Hunter" it is very annoying that I get endless hits for just "W." Can the search engine not be taught to ONLY look for "W. Hunter" ?

  11. Exact searching

    Because words like "and", "of" etc. seem to be used as operators, I often can't use them in the way I'd like. For example, I want to search for the EXACT phrase "The Horse and Hounds". At the moment, I can't see how to do it.
    I would like to be able to search for an EXACT phrase , e.g. "The Horse and Hounds" without

  12. Stop treating one off subscriptions as continuous

    Stop treating one off subscriptions as a continuous subscription. It's sharp practice and it's not a good look.

  15. A Timeline, simple base line of world/UK event dates occurring at, or near the atricle date

    Place the articles in some kind of timeline, a simple baseline graph idea would help I suppose. I don't have a plan but whenever I find an article concerning an ancestor it would help to picture the time he was living in - who was on the throne, world action concerning Britain etc.

  20. Academic Citation

    The BNA has become an invaluable tool for researchers. I'd like the ability to download a citation of the records in the common formats MLA, Chicago etc.Your database is likely to contain the required information such as source, date, page number and so on. Is there any chance of such a facility being added?
