Although the dictionary provides for a phrase with regard to a location of an social entity, the fact is that this phrases are not used (now it says "a school lives at Yokohama"). Please check.

Thanks for reporting this bug, it must have been there a while. A small change to Lang.vbs is required to fix it:

Line 1816 with addition highlighted.

Report.WritePhrase Util.FirstNonEmpty(StrDicOrTag("PhOT_" & o.Type.ID & "_" & obj.Class, CustomTag(o, "NarrativeStyle")), StrDicOrTag("PhOT_" & o.Type.ID, CustomTag(o, "NarrativeStyle")), _


This will be in the next version.

Thanks Ron, this part works now, but..

A social entity is not a person (usually not), so the phrase in the dictionary should be adjusted as well.
You can say just " This place is located ....." or "This social entity is located ....".

There are problems in attempting to supply narrative for a 'social entity'. The GenoPro object does not have a title or even a type and the term 'social entity' is not in common usage and will not be understood by many readers. Also a social entity is not necessarily a place, making, in my opinion, 'this place' or 'this social entity' unsuitable.

I have used the heading 'groups and organisations' for the index of 'social entities' in an attempt at a more common phrase. 

At present the narrative uses the 'name' of the social entity, which is either the first line of the text or the custom tag 'Title', as for the first occupancy phrase subject and the non-personal pronoun 'it' for subsequent phrases for the same entity. 

A solution maybe to add a custom tag 'Type' so that the first phrase can have 'This <type>.' instead of 'name' e.g. 'This organisation', 'This club' etc. 

Even better if GenoPro could add these tags as standard tags for Social Entities.
