How Gothic Text Generator is made
How the Gothic text generator and the guides on Gothic Text Generator are written, sourced and corrected.
Each guide on Gothic Text Generator starts from a real task and is written to go with the Gothic text generator. Software assistance is part of our design and writing process.
Sources on this site
6 of the 6 guides link to outside sources. The links point to: en.wikipedia.org, github.com, portal.findresearcher.sdu.dk, unicode.org, vice.com. Time-sensitive facts should be checked against those sources before they affect your plans, because a publication date does not mean we monitor them continuously.
