            It seems a lot of novelist are now having as profession "novelist the band". I actually happened to remove that from it. (Sorry dont know how to revert, please fix someone)

             

            Either way, novelists were split over two different "novelist".

              Thanks for noticing that. It looks like the bulk of these were from a sloppy import from a Wikipedia infobox. I've cleaned up the authors from the band's topic, and put them on the correct "novelist" topic.

            Search 'poet', filter person & you see a load of poetic movements or schools mistyped as poets & person. Many seem to have been added by an April 17 upload.

              Thanks for catching that. I've fixed all the obvious ones. If you run across any more, please let me know or just remove the incorrect types.

            A Nov 30 upload seems to have wrongly typed quite a few musical groups as person. E.g. you can see this in the results of { "query":[{ "name":null, "name~=":"^The", "type":"/people/person" }] }

            A May 24 upload seems to have misattributed a load of books to leslie charteris. In case it was a bug which might have affected other pages, I thought i'd leave a note here

              Good catch; I've fixed the books wrongly attributed to Leslie Charteris. Fortunately, it doesn't look like this happened with the rest of the data load.
