Thanks very much for your comments on the authority control proposal on the Village Pump. We've refined it and worked out some more details after the discussion, and there is now a community Request for Comment to approve it being implemented. Any comments gratefully received!

Hours ago I posted a note to Andrew Gray including this paragraph:
This hour I have read one of your explanations in our English Wikipedia talk space and I have skimmed your user page. It isn't clear to me what may be useful to report regarding GND data.
For what it's worth, I have noted probably dozens (24?) of en.wikipedia biographies where VIAF does not match the LCCN ID with the one unique or with any one of multiple GND ID. That is, LCCN (which I have always confirmed) and GND (sometimes confirmed) both have records for the biography subject but VIAF does not match them; there are at least two different VIAF for the subject. I have noted these instances by a comment in the biography source code as for Emily Gravett ( External links code). -- P64 ( talk) 21:32, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi, Gymel. Are we ready to use template AC on redirect pages?
Anyway, if you do continue with work such as 12 April 2015
where the target is a joint biography such as
Jerome and Evelyn Ackerman, please tag the redirect(s) with {{
Redr|to joint biography}}
.
Today I revised about 50 redirects from 18:45 to 20:00 with edit summaries "{Redr|to joint biography}}" or "{Redr|to joint biography}} {{DEFAULTSORT:" [1].
-- P64 ( talk) 21:45, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
{{
R to joint biography}}
(same effect as {{Redr}}?) next time in that situation, but I don't think there will be coming much: My recent activity here had to to with sifting through
d:Wikidata:Database reports/Constraint violations/P214#"Unique value" violations where among others the following typical case occured: en.wikipedia provides a VIAF number in the (i.e. one or illegaly several) AC template of a joint biography article. When this is imported to wikidata usually a conflict occurs because the same VIAF number is also listed at the wikidata entry of the real person. It may be that some more cases are buried in the complementary report
d:Wikidata:Database reports/Constraint violations/P214#"Single value" violations when VIAF numbers for more than one real person have migrated into one wikidata item and there are no items for the real persons (at least with VIAF numbers) to trigger the conflict at a place easier to spot. --

. Secondary parameters "toggle" the messages; I haven't learned them but see e.g.
Template talk:This is a redirect#Language codes and
WT:WikiProject Redirect#Categories for "double" redirects. {Redr} hides the template messages, which costs one extra "click" and costs display space for one short message (as for {{
R to joint biography}} alone), saves space for several messages or one long one.Thanks. Last year I skimmed the 2013 discussion D:Wikidata:Requests for comment/A need for a resolution regarding article moves and redirects and concluded that I should store authority identifiers for joint biographies in my user space --or article talk space, when I started Talk:Ingri and Edgar Parin d'Aulaire#Authority control data. Now I will begin to add/move it to personal redirects.
1. Should existing links from WD items to Wikipedia redirects (as at D:Q5372432) be deleted? Only last hour I reported at D:Talk:Q7767892 "Emily Windsnap and her Wikipedia redirects" concerning Emily Windsnap.
2. Do you know, is there a general policy concerning hard inter-language links? Example at ES.wiki [2] (which I added yesterday); contrast one at DE.wiki [3] (not mine), where comment disables the links.
