Some more informations for documentation writers:
The use of the settings are explained in tooltips in the settings tab.
Basically it says:
- You can customize the separators and give multiple alternatives separated by a vertical bar “|”.
- In case you give alternatives the first value will be default and used when displaying a reference string (e.g. on the bibles slides).
- Keep in mind, that most propably it makes no sence to use the same value for different separators.
- If the check is not ticked, then the GUI language dependent default will be used.

In http://manual.openlp.org/mediamanager.html#bibles there needs to be some additional hints for this:
- Remind users, that the reference format will be language dependent.
- They will see some valid scripture reference formats in the error dialog when using a wrong one.
- The listed scripture references are not anymore all supported formats but rather some valid ones beyond much others. (I guess the list is still enough, but in case documentation writers like to see a complete, comprehensible explanation: http://docs.openlp.org/plugins/bibles.html#openlp.plugins.bibles.lib.parse_reference)

Title:
  Allow different scripture notations

Status in OpenLP - Worship Presentation Software:
  Fix Committed
Status in OpenLP documentation series:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hello,

  xubuntu 11.04, r1657

  Currently the user is forced to use the English notation for bibles:
  1. Mose 1:1-2 (which is Genesis 1:1-2)

  But the German notation is "1. Mose 1, 1-2". We should not force to use the English notation, instead the local notation should be used. 
  I do not know if Germany is an exception with the notation. If Germany is an exception we can hard code it otherwise a translation file based solution would be preferred (if possible. The regex might not allow use to do this).

  NOTE: in openlp/core/plugins/bibles/lib/__init__ a German regex is
  commented in the code.

  Cheers
