Hello Kolja21. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Personal Name File, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The reason given is not a valid speedy deletion criterion. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz Talk/ Stalk 19:44, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
Kolja, I have visited some EN.wiki biographies where you have revised template {{ Authority control}}, often termed "GND fix". You may be able to explain to me some important points about VIAF bundles as they pertain to GND records --how we should reflect VIAF bundles in EN.wiki biographies and when some explicit error report is welcome.
In one elaborate case you say "not a single person, just a container for the name" [1]?
(I have moved the revised templates from the joint biography, where they may be inappropriate, to a talk page section Talk: Janet and Allan Ahlberg#Authority control data. It seems likely that the templates will eventually be completed for the redirect pages Janet Ahlberg and Allan Ahlberg.)
The VIAF bundles for A. and J. Ahlberg include "undifferentiated" GND records. Do you consider such bundles to be VIAF errors that we should report, or merely something to avoid on wiki biography pages?
If I understand correctly these records constitute a backlog of work in the queue at DNB. (For the famous German name Jutta Bauer, only four recent publications are undifferentiated. [2])
You may be able to comment usefully on the Ahlbergs talk page, Talk: Janet and Allan Ahlberg#Authority control data, where I have tried to explain my understanding --and where I have made some mistake in completing template {{ DNB portal}} for these two people.
(This does not concern one of your fixes. This one too is in talk space, Talk: Lynn Poole#Gray Johnson Poole, because it is destined for a redirect page. The writer has no biography here yet.)
See Gray Poole at VIAF. Bundle #2 includes a GND record that is undifferentiated and covers no library holdings by Gray Poole. Whereas #3 is a person record that covers one publication correctly.
I suppose the template should be completed thus.
Do you agree? If so, will the placement of this completed template in article space, Gray Johnson Poole, adequately report the error?

How important is it, for us to break GND links as you did for the Ahlbergs [1, above]? Are you searching somehow, or finding them by accident? (I may be responsible for creating about 100 in the course of work on perhaps 500 biographies.) -- P64 ( talk) 20:59, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
