These two have the same problem--the description field is empty and the adapter leaving <td></td> tags around it. Calibre's sanitize_html doesn't like that combination. Change <td> to <div> and it's happy again.

This one is a different issue. The author entered bad HTML (an unmatched <a> tag) in the story description. This breaks the metadata parsing--and page format:


I can add code to catch the exception and go on, but rating, status and/or datePublished will not be collected then. There will be a 'warning' level message in the background job log, but you will not be notified anymore prominently.

This is an interesting class of problem that was effecting 10 different adapters. Adapters' getSiteExampleURLs() value has to be able to pass their own getSiteURLPattern() for geturls.get_urls_from_page() to work correctly. (Because reasons.) I didn't remember that when GComyn started putting [storyId] in examples in adapters.
