A very confused situation in SBN, now solved (it will be visible on Tuesday as usual); the main involved persons are:

1. Giuseppe Amadei (Q130643741): Italian pianist and hebraist (1968-) = https://d-nb.info/gnd/134932935 (good enough)
2. Giuseppe Amadei (Q3769950): Italian politician and art historian (1919-2020) = https://d-nb.info/gnd/1056678275 (to be improved)
3. Giuseppe Amadei (Q112474346): Italian journalist (1907-1986) = nothing, but https://gateway-bayern.de/BV046217038 is wrongly attributed to 2
4. Giuseppe Amadei (Q104247317): Italian physician (1854-1919) = nothing, but http://cbsopac.rz.uni-frankfurt.de/DB=2.1/PPNSET?PPN=521009413 is wrongly attributed to 2

BNF https://catalogue.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/cb12666693n is a bad mix of 2 and 3; I can try reporting the issue after Tuesday, but I dAoubt it will be solved. I will also report, after Tuesday, the conflation in https://isni.org/isni/0000000117978716 which will hopefully be solved. --Epìdosis 16:22, 25 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

https://gateway-bayern.de/BV012157009 misuses https://d-nb.info/gnd/118977016 = Salvatore Costanza (Q112262681): Italian literary scholar (1914-1995), it is Salvatore Costanza (Q126961309): Italian historian and journalist (1930-2021). Thanks! --Epìdosis 06:07, 28 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Is "Ital. Klass. Philologe" the correct description for Salvatore Costanza (Q112262681): Italian literary scholar (1914-1995)? I suspect GND 118977016 (DE-12) was created by the Bavarian State Library (Q256507) for these two titles:

• Il Fondo Vecchio dei codici manoscritti della Biblioteca universitaria di Messina (1970)
• Exemplaria palaeographica (1970)

The historian can now be found under GND 1346367876. --Kolja21 (talk) 11:59, 28 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

PS: The source BSB-AK = Bayerische Staatsbibliothek, Alphabetischer Katalog. It's the import of an old record. --Kolja21 (talk) 12:05, 28 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yes, the present description is fine and probably more precise than the one presently in SBN. Thanks for the creation of the new ID as usual! Epìdosis 21:41, 28 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi, only the first GND contained an ISNI (now removed). ISNI 0000 0001 1201 4029 is connected through NUKAT n2003097524. --Kolja21 (talk) 00:17, 30 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

I rarely see ISNI used by GND. ORCID, on the other hand, was imported on a large scale. @Wurgl: Kennst du die genauen Zahlen? --Kolja21 (talk) 00:38, 30 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi, it's strange: opening all the above GNDs in the RDF I see the ISNIs I mention; and, on the basis of various manual checks, I am convinced that the high amount of ISNI (P213) values that the various socks recently blocked have been importing in the last days (and that have greatly inflated Property talk:P213/Duplicates/humans, which I am always using for periodical checks) are exactly imported from GND. Is it that maybe ISNI is added automatically to GND and is not editable manually? This would be a problem. I copy the RDF of the second and the third:

• https://d-nb.info/gnd/1268588075/about/lds: owl:sameAs <http://viaf.org/viaf/163055066>, <https://isni.org/isni/0000000112014029>, <http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q108313626>;

Epìdosis 08:10, 30 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

In the dumpfile (October 24th) I find 2.846.246 ISNIs, (2.586.330 persons, 15 families) 390.735 (~355.000 persons) of those records are assigned in deWP.

Caution: I think, that ISNI gets magically imported into the dump. Example: for https://d-nb.info/gnd/1272155420 I do not see any text "ISNI", but in https://d-nb.info/gnd/1272155420/about/lds I see it, so maybe these numbers do not really help. The data labeled "Quelle" on the DNB-website is not(!) contained in the dump. --Wurgl (talk) 09:12, 30 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

In all four cases no ISNI is showing up if I edit the GND. So everyone who is doing automatic imports need to distinguish between "real" IDs and "hidden" ones. In the future, the problem will certainly get worse. We really need to be careful with clusters (VIAF) and automatically generated authority files (ISNI). --Kolja21 (talk) 15:02, 30 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Kolja21: ok, this is interesting; so GND doesn't store ISNI but probably its presence is due to VIAF clusterizations and changes according to VIAF clusterization; on the one end it's positive, in the sense that we don't have to correct wrong ISNIs in GND manually; but on the other end (and most importantly) it's negative, because we can't correct wrong ISNIs in GnD and we are at the mercy of VIAF ... so I will not report to you the next cases I find, and let's hope that fixing things in Wikidata will be enough to improve VIAF clusterization and make these mistakes disappear also in GND. Epìdosis 15:47, 30 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Could you check the GND in Xing Liu (Q126414570): Chinese accounting academic, born 1956 (ORCID id = 0000-0002-0467-9474)? It is arranged in an usual way. Thanks, --Epìdosis 10:51, 30 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Looks like a mix of three persons: ISNI 0000 0003 5507 4173 was added to:

• Xing Liu (Q126414570): Chinese accounting academic, born 1956 (ORCID id = 0000-0002-0467-9474)
• Liu Xing (Q9111132): Chinese composer, born 1962

GND 115085491 is linked to a book by:

• Xing Liu (Q126394520): Chinese computer scientist, born 1958. Author of Neural networks for identification, prediction and control (1995)

I'll take a closer look at it tonight. @Howard61313: FYI. --Kolja21 (talk) 15:27, 30 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Howard seems to experiment with the data like he has done before.[1] Since the authority files are mixed the result is chaotic. ISNI 0000 0003 5507 4173 is linked to the title Neural Networks for Identification (Xing Liu, no. 3) with the source BnF 14612716 for the film Les démons à ma porte = IMDb nm0515045. BnF is for a female person, the composer (Xing Liu, no. 2) is said to be male. So a fourth person could be involved. Without knowledge of Chinese, this is difficult to clarify. --Kolja21 (talk) 18:37, 30 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

I've created GND 1346760101 for the computer scientist and filed a report so that the titles will be relinked. --Kolja21 (talk) 19:21, 30 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

https://d-nb.info/gnd/116961236 the second couple of dates (1808-1881) is wrong IMHO = Wilhelm Meves (Q94866413). Thanks! --Epìdosis 08:13, 31 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

There are 6 different sources. The GND editor only collected the information without evaluating it. Because of the conflicting time specifications, I cannot edit this record.

GND states that she died in Auschwitz in 1944 citing also French Wikipedia, but fr:Nadine Heftler (as well as BNF) says she survived and died in 2016. Or maybe are they two different persons?

  Done Silke was faster than me.[2] The two publications belong to Peter Huxley-Blythe (Q99485331): British author and fascist (1925–2013). --Kolja21 (talk) 15:22, 16 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

https://d-nb.info/127528213X is an evidently wrong attribution of work to https://d-nb.info/gnd/1061598411 = François Chau (Q555559): Cambodian American actor (1959-), it is François Chau (Q124350548): chemist instead. Thanks! --Epìdosis 15:39, 14 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Done I've created GND 1348525479 for the chemist and filed a report. --Kolja21 (talk) 19:30, 16 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

https://d-nb.info/gnd/1154524329 and https://d-nb.info/gnd/115738546X are the same person and the first has a wrong date, he states for himself (https://independent.academia.edu/diloretopietro) that he was born in 1955 not 1951. Thanks! --Epìdosis 16:44, 14 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Done Thanks for the hint. Pietro Di Loreto (Q131179313): Italian historian and art historian (1955-). BTW: There are supposed to be people who make themselves younger, so I wouldn't mark BnF as error in referenced source or sources (Q29998666). --Kolja21 (talk) 19:55, 16 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

I agree, academia.edu is not an official document (e.g. a curriculum published in a university website); I have de-deprecated the date supported by BNF and set anyway the one of Academia.edu as preferred. Epìdosis 20:23, 16 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

+1. Looks perfect. --Kolja21 (talk) 05:28, 17 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Two strange things:

• Andreas Seyfarth (Q66766): German game designer seems not to have a GND
• Andreas Seyfarth (Q125304963): no description was created on the basis of https://d-nb.info/gnd/1299424155 which seems to contain a wrong link to de:Andreas Seyfarth which is the first one.

Thanks! --Epìdosis 10:18, 15 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Done Already solved, see VIAF 284031914: DNB 1299424155, delete 2024-05-30. (Thanks to edits by Silke: 2024-04-03.) GND doesn't contain a link to Wikipedia. The data is automatically compared by the DNB catalog and the link will be fixed one day. No idea why it takes so long. I will create a GND for the namesake. --Kolja21 (talk) 06:03, 17 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

https://d-nb.info/gnd/132319519 = Aleksandr Morozov (Q104179688): Russian economist (1965-) seems to have wrongly 1944 instead of 1965 as birth date (thanks @Difool: for already fixing it in Wikidata). --Epìdosis 10:34, 15 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

I've corrected the year of birth and filed a report since I can't change the name. --Kolja21 (talk) 11:34, 15 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello Kolja21: I have found this duplicate name in GND (DNB-Deutsche Nationalbibliothek) codes : 134122550 and 1157481795, but I'm not absolute sure that they were the same person. Could you help me about this issue? Thanks. Ferran Mir (talk) 11:30, 17 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi Ferran, thanks for letting me know. There are two ways to find out:

• Use OGND: titles connected with this GND; not always reliable
• VIAF shows who created the GND: DE-7 = Göttingen State and University Library (Q564783), check their catalog

I will leave a note at de:WP:GND/F. --Kolja21 (talk) 11:47, 17 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

I am not fully sure of the merge I made in Anke Schneider (Q112359303); could you check and undo if necessary? Thanks, --Epìdosis 09:11, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Done Other person. No idea why the blocked user mixed them. --Kolja21 (talk) 09:28, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

PS: I've found the reason. VIAF 62186410 mixed NKČR-AUT and GND till 2024-08-04. I will create a GND for the physician. --Kolja21 (talk) 09:54, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

https://gateway-bayern.de/BV040321710 wrongly attributed to https://d-nb.info/gnd/119409194 = Arnaldo Fraccaroli (Q3623504): Italian journalist, writer and actor (1882-1956), it is clearly Arnaldo Fraccaroli (Q112970002): Italian priest (1933-2007). Thanks! --Epìdosis 12:13, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

I've created GND 1348644478 for the priest with a link to Giacomo Lercaro (Q377093): Italian cardinal (1891-1976). --Kolja21 (talk) 13:27, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

I think that all, or nearly all, the works attributed to https://d-nb.info/gnd/132422727 = Renzo Federici (Q105993719): Italian painter (1919-1972) are by Renzo Federici (Q105992442): Italian art critic (1921-1990). In SBN I was unable to find bibliographic records of the first. --Epìdosis 13:28, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

I also find no proof for "Kunsthistoriker" in https://d-nb.info/gnd/132422727; the source LC https://id.loc.gov/authorities/n85122884 is itself conflated ... and the conflation began probably when it cited itself GND (because in fact "found: I Segni incisi, c1985:t.p. (Renzo Federici)" and "found: L'impero romano, 1988:title page verso (Traduzione Renzo Federici)" clearly regard Renzo Federici (Q105992442): Italian art critic (1921-1990)). Epìdosis 13:35, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Imho GND 132422727 was created for the art historian (or art critic) for books like Segni incisi (1985) with one source (the weakly individualized LCAuth), see kubikat (Q63958929), and later the bio of the painter was added. What irritates me is that the painter is hardly known. No AKL online, no ULAN. --Kolja21 (talk) 13:50, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Maybe the catalog of the Swiss National Library is the answer: Renzo Gipèn Federici il quaderno come enigma. [mostra], Museo Diotti, Casalmaggiore, 1 giugno - 14 luglio 2013. (They probably hijacked the authority file.) --Kolja21 (talk) 14:15, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Step 1: I deleted the biographical information about the painter. GND 132422727 now refers only to the art historian.--Kolja21 (talk) 14:26, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Step 2: I've created GND 1348676671 for the painter. --Kolja21 (talk) 00:29, 19 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Done I've checked both GNDs again and filed a report so that the classification ("13.4p Personen zu Malerei, Zeichnung, Grafik") is corrected. --Kolja21 (talk) 08:09, 19 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

A lot of clearly wrong attributions of bibliographic records to https://d-nb.info/gnd/1244889482 = Giuseppe Bonaccorso (Q112343305): Italian manager (1979-) instead of correct Giuseppe Bonaccorso (Q61472783): Italian architect, e.g. https://gateway-bayern.de/BV012013620 and https://opac.k10plus.de/DB=2.299/PPNSET?PPN=1801056242&PRS=HOL&INDEXSET=21. Thanks! --Epìdosis 13:48, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Same case as Renzo Federici. Probably GND was created weakly individualized by the Library of the Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florence (Q17622734) and later used for an other person. In this case, I cannot undo the conflation since I can't edit fields like "Weitere Standardnummern" or "Akademischer Titel". I've filed a report. --Kolja21 (talk) 08:54, 19 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

https://d-nb.info/gnd/134723449 is presently both Komponist and Schauspieler; I fear the first is Lester Allen (Q77549024): songwriter and composer and the second is Lester Allen (Q6531791): American actor (1891-1949). I have just disentangled them in SBN. Thanks, --Epìdosis 14:07, 18 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Done Confused by Filmportal, see Deutsche Biographie. I've created GND 1348714131 for the actor. --Kolja21 (talk) 09:17, 19 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Unclear https://d-nb.info/gnd/116508175 - is it Johann Christian Briegleb (Q21543260): German philologist and teacher (1741-1805) or Johann Valentin Briegleb (Q94904477): no description? Both already have a GND. Thanks, --Epìdosis 10:45, 20 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Confusion of father and son, see Kalliope-Verbund. I'll see what I can do. --Kolja21 (talk) 13:31, 20 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Done I've corrected GND 116508175 and filed a report. --Kolja21 (talk) 13:57, 20 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

A vague doubt: may Martin Stahl-Schröder (Q55090774): professor of agricultural sciences (1862-1911) be the same as Mart. Jac. Schröder (Q60499846): no description? Thanks, --Epìdosis 09:17, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

It's just a VIAF conflation since the DNB has no titles connected to pharmacist M. J. Schröder. --Kolja21 (talk) 10:37, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Is https://d-nb.info/gnd/12881201X for Brincken (Q110873988): Westphalian noble family or House of Brinken (Q693556): Polish noble family? Thanks! --Epìdosis 10:33, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Done No.1: GND 12881201X = Westphalian noble family. No. 2: same family, other branch ("ursprünglich aus Westfalen stammendes Adelsgeschlecht, das sich im 15. Jahrhundert in Kurland besitzlich machte"). I did some clean-up. --Kolja21 (talk) 11:01, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Do you think I added a correct GND to Karl August Wobst (Q21612886): botanist (1842-1914)? In https://prometheus.lmu.de/gnd/117613843 I don't see nothing. --Epìdosis 11:53, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the ping. GND created by Kalliope (DE-611) and not used any more. Botanist vs. philologist therefore probably not identical, but I'll keep looking. --Kolja21 (talk) 12:06, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Done The botanist was a teacher ("Oberlehrer"). It's quite possible that the two persons are identical. Unfortunately the dead file has the highest cataloging level (Tp1) so I created a new GND 1348912537 for the botanist. --Kolja21 (talk) 12:52, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

I would suggest to improve https://d-nb.info/gnd/128187662 to make it clearer it is about Mihály Kocsis (Q1114714): Hungarian judge, jurist and university teacher (1899-1970). Thanks! --Epìdosis 17:05, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

There are still some uncertainties:

• Mihály Kocsis (Q1114714): Hungarian judge, jurist and university teacher (1899-1970). I removed IdRef 032660545.
  • Landmarks in the development of the contractual system / Lajos Vékás; translated by Mihály Kocsis, 1986.
• IdRef 032660545 is already used for Mihály Kocsis (Q12113933): Hungarian slavist (1955-).
• But the same title is connected to the judge: PLWABN ID 9810649610405606.

So PLWABN (Biblioteka Narodowa) is a conflation? I will look at it tomorrow again. --Kolja21 (talk) Kolja21 (talk) 22:55, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Epìdosis: Also SBN MILV165577 seems to be linked to a wrong title:

• Kocsis, Mihaly <1899-1970>
  • A register of initial words in gospel verses, based on Old Church Slavic records / compiled by Mihaly Kocsis (1994)

Creating also the GND IDs of Alberto Carrara (Q131337624): Italian geologist and Alberto Carrara (Q131329176): Italian surgeon (1958-) would be useful too. Epìdosis 17:41, 26 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
