Does that look okay? --Lucas Werkmeister (talk) 21:58, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Lucas Werkmeister: Do you have an ID for that person's record in the database? If so, it might be worth adding this in the reference so that it's easy to track the entry should someone want to follow it up. object named as (P1932) might be useful here.

@Andrew Gray: there is an internal ID, but I wasn’t sure if it was worth creating a property proposal for. But object named as (P1932) sounds good. Or perhaps catalog code (P528)? (object named as (P1932) has a constraint used as qualifier constraint (Q21510863)…) --Lucas Werkmeister (talk) 22:36, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Magnus's bot uses subject named as (P1810), though that also uses proper names rather than codes. Andrew Gray (talk) 20:41, 3 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Andrew Gray: I think I’ll go with catalog code (P528) for now, object named as (P1932) sounds like it makes more sense for names. --Lucas Werkmeister (talk) 21:09, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
