Wrong valid inputs for name in UG
Description
Trying to add a new person
Steps to reproduce
- Launch the application for the first time to load initial data.
- Run
add n/La Niña 2 m/Computer Science y/2 e/johnd@u.nus.edu d/I’m a Frontend Developer t/06 t/19 sm/https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-doe-123456789 sm/https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-doe-123456789 nt/local g/m
.Expected behaviour
The person should be added successfully as this is sample valid input from the User Guide (same issue for name Élise DuPont)
Actual behaviour
An error is raised
Names should only contain alphabetical characters and spaces, and it should not be blank. It should also not exceed 30 characters.
Reason for severity
Likely documentation issue (wrong valid inputs) since it is stated "Character Restrictions: Only alphabetical characters (A-Z, a-z) and spaces are allowed"

[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]
We set the severity as very low as we believe it does not affect the usage of the app. For people who have symbols in their name, they can type their name without it, so the app would still work for them.
Items for the Tester to Verify
:question: Issue duplicate status
Team chose to mark this issue as a duplicate of another issue (as explained in the Team's response above)
Reason for disagreement: [replace this with your explanation]
Character restriction mentions that
Only alphabetical characters (A-Z, a-z) and spaces are allowed.
And the valid names displayed includes names with symbols, such as La Niña and Élise DuPont.This may be confusing to users, as they think that they can add
Niña
, but they cant addNiña
:(
