new f46d9a07 Use real chapter descriptions from the ALC wiki pages
f46d9a07 is described below
commit f46d9a079e17a510a1fe92cc7c90184b673e7460
Author: Rich Bowen <rb...@rcbowen.com>
AuthorDate: Mon Oct 12 07:37:50 2026 -0400
Use real chapter descriptions from the ALC wiki pages
Replace the generic placeholder blurbs with each chapter's actual city
description pulled from its wiki page, and set the correct wiki link per
chapter (pageId URLs for Florianópolis and Xi'an, whose display-name
slugs 404). No organizer names duplicated — each page links to its wiki
page for current organizers, events, and reports.
