The problem is that the osisRef is incomplete. It should be osisRef="Luke.3.23-Luke.3.38”.
The impact is that clicking on the reference in Bible Desktop, it only shows Luke 3:23.</pre>

This is a known artifact of the current conversion from
human-readable references to machine readable references. USFM
doesn't directly handle reference links, so I synthesize them on
conversion to USFX, which is then converted to OSIS. This will
probably be fixed eventually, but don't hold your breath waiting for
it. It probably involves rewriting the code that does that, which is
currently a set of 7 XSLT processes. I have a lot of higher
priorities on my work list. If you prefer, I could inhibit such
osisRef entries altogether until such time as I might possibly get
around to improving the reference reading process. (It is kind of
complicated, since "human readable" actually means "human readable
in any of about 7,000 languages".) The alternative of getting all of
the translators (or anyone else) to go back and manually enter
machine-readable references probably won't happen during this
century.<br>

<pre wrap="">The following is just extra. It is in addition to the bug mentioned above.
It is also really odd that there is a second title that contains a parenthesized, inlined reference.
The type="sub” is meant to give a sub part of a title. Since there is no prior title, it shouldn’t be sub. As a plain title, it doesn’t need an attribute.</pre>

<br>
That "sub" in the title probably came from \s (section title), which
could be (but isn't always) under \ms (main section title). It does
no harm, as far as I can tell, and having it there covers the case
where \s follows \ms. Let's not move the goal posts any more than we
have to.<br>

<pre wrap="">Also, the type=“parallel” is inappropriate. The OSIS manual gives that parallel is meant to provide the title in another language. The type sub is probably more appropriate. Or even type="continued” which means that this title continues the last.</pre>
</blockquote>
<br>
Page Appendix F, page 138 of the OSIS User Manual seems to disagree
with you about the proper conversion of the USFM \r tag.<br>

<br>
Yes, it is. That is certainly not the only redundancy. It is not
harmful.<br>
