Let me just point to https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Wikidata:Project_chat&oldid=1777735426#Why_are_these_items_getting_corrupted_like_this? which covers what might be similar failure mode, and which you may wish to consider whilst contemplating the above. For convenience, here's a cut & paste of the short thread: START I recently used my wikidata model (discussed above) to identify items that are misclassified. The most suspicious items are listed at User:BrokenSegue/PsychiqConflicts. But one really common pattern is the following: - James Lesslie (Q11775583) is linked to en:James Lesslie which is a disambiguation page - en:James Lesslie (publisher) is moved on top of en:James Lesslie and changed to be about a specific person - James Lesslie (Q6138007) is left orphaned to a redirect page. Now I thought that when pages moved the reference gets changed on Wikidata. But this isn't happening? Is there something we can change? Can we ask Wikipedia users to be more careful? There are probably hundreds or thousands of errors like this. BrokenSegue (talk) 01:21, 23 November 2022 (UTC) Probably worth raising at Wikidata:Report a technical problem. The patterns /seems/ to be, pagemove to a hitherto unused name -> WD sitelink is updated; pagemove over an existing page -> WD sitelink is not updated. If so: pagemove over is a routine event; why is it not being recognised / acted on? --Tagishsimon (talk) 02:26, 23 November 2022 (UTC) END TASK DETAIL https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T323239 EMAIL PREFERENCES https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/ To: Tagishsimon Cc: dcausse, Tagishsimon, Aklapper, agray, Astuthiodit_1, AWesterinen, karapayneWMDE, Invadibot, MPhamWMF, maantietaja, CBogen, ItamarWMDE, Akuckartz, Nandana, Namenlos314, Lahi, Gq86, Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE, GoranSMilovanovic, QZanden, EBjune, merbst, LawExplorer, _jensen, rosalieper, Scott_WUaS, Jonas, Xmlizer, jkroll, Wikidata-bugs, Jdouglas, aude, Tobias1984, Manybubbles, Mbch331
