Beyond Notability: Person not of Interest
A Person not of Interest is typically a manwho worked in archaeology, history and/or heritage between 1870 and 1950, and who we encounter in our main archival records of interest, but have chosen not to investigate details of their lives or copy across known data, in order to focus our labour on Persons of Interest
As such, many of these records will be no more than a name. Where they are developed, links to external services are prioritised in order to provide linkages that enable queries that combine our data and external data (e.g. see the query 'Where women in our data are in wikidata, their spouses, fathers, and mothers according to wikidata' on our Example Queries page.
That said, anyone encountering this site is welcome to develop these entries using the template for Persons of Interest as a guide.
BEFORE CREATING A NEW ITEM ALWAYS SEARCH HERE TO CHECK IF A RECORD FOR THEM EXISTS ALREADY (you may be pleasantly surprised!
