Q75496213 deletion

Hi Multichill, Could I check what aspect of the item Q75496213 (Daniele Pugliesi) violated? Did they request its deletion? I'm asking because it's broken a couple of downstream pages that linked to it so if it was only some of the statements in the item I would recreate it (omitting the problem statements), but if the subject requested deletion then I won't!

@Evolution and evolvability: Privacy violation. Subject requested deletion. Please don't recreate this because this looks like an (unintentional) case of en:Wikipedia:OUTING. Multichill (talk) 15:43, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for confirming I assume the outing was linking their wiki username to their real life name. I'd thought it ok from the usepage's 'user info' section. Any item recreated will just be from what's public on their ORCID and I'll leave a note on its talkpage to note that the subject wants any statements relating to wikimedia uername omitted.

Ban.

Parsing "Unknown"

Hi, i noticed your bot created a bunch of items on works of arts by scraping various museum's websites (Seattle, Minneapolis). Unfortunately in some case, the author is mentioned as « Unknown Korean » (Fish and Water Plants (Q112201784)) or the likes and this creates lousy description (at least in Dutch, French, and German). I don't know if something can be done in the future. For instance checking if the author name on the museum's website contains "unknown" (or the same problem might be found for "anonymous", i haven't checked). And in those case trigger some kind of language-specific translation. Also there are around 1.6k faulty labels, do you know how best to correct them?
