Hi, can you explain why you removed this VIAF ID? -Pete F (talk) 21:07, 31 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Maintenance of VIAF identifiers edit

I am the OCLC VIAF Liaison and work with colleagues in OCLC to maintain the VIAF identifiers. We discovered that this Wikidata entry was incorrectly being clustering with the James Robert Cardwell born in 1962 who studies behavioral endocrinology in fish: http://viaf.org/viaf/105348839/#Cardwell,_James_Robert,_1962- I have pulled away the Wikidata entry in this VIAF cluster which will cause the identifier to change for James Robert Cardwell the dentist. This is why I removed the VIAF ID from his Wikidata entry since it is for another person and will no longer be associated to this person. The cluster in VIAF will be updated with this change by the end of next week. -Hmoreno18 (talk) 22:44, 31 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
