substitution for ALL divine names

[elmehi]

Right now the source sheets include an option to substitute for the Tetragrammaton only. All divine names should be included (ex: אלוקים). Thanks

This is a tricky one, since it's context dependent (e.g, the word אלהים is not always a divine name). Do you think it would be better to offer this option even if it overcorrect sometimes?

Chabad seems solves this problem by including the statement:

"The text on this page contains sacred literature. Please do not deface or discard."

Can adding this statement somewhere (for example where the "Made with the Sefaria Source Sheet Builder" is embedded) be an option instead?

Is there a problem with substituting אלוקים even when the original means "judges", for example?

I think it would be best to have an option to produce source sheets that do not require genizah, according to the commonly-accepted opinions. So this would include substitutions for the seven names enumerated by Rambam, and maybe some others.

Latest update to code includes additional substitutions, but not all of Rambam's 7. (There are just too many false positives on אֵל & צְבָאוֹת & שדי). Most are ק replacements for ה's and happen automatically whenever any substitution of the tetragramaton occurs.
