> Ë with diaeresis is the easiest case to deal with

Wait, no! This is the most complicated one, fortunately it's scarcely appears.

Is this move the reason for the random 403 errors I get from the tumblr rss feeds I follow? Since a few weeks ago, some feeds are disappearing then reappearing, sometimes they are unavailable for a few days, sometimes it's back the moment I refresh. If the move is in the future, I guess that means they have neglected the current platform.

You do not need a different algorithm for each real. Just take the algorithm that proves the statement for rational p. It proves the statement for all reals bigger than p. (hence having as many algorithms as there are rational (countably many) is enough)

It fetches data from the public APIs of openlibrary.org and inventaire.io. From my point of view, inventaire is really great as it synchronizes with wikidata and is far better at not duplicating works or authors.
