Honesty guardrails

  • Every biographical cell in the Wikidata-anchored vitals table is anchored to a specific Q3818144 fact — a property statement (P-number), the entity’s Wikidata English-language description, or its English Wikipedia sitelink title. This page asserts no biographical claim outside the table.
  • Q3818144’s P569 records the year of birth at year-level precision; the schuylkillhub h1 title “(1833–1877)” presents the year only.
  • The rendered Person schema’s hasOccupation value follows Q3818144’s structured P106 (“businessperson”). The entity’s Wikidata English description (“tavern owner and criminal”) is included as a separate row in the table for completeness.
  • This page does NOT assert specific identifications commonly associated with this case in non-Wikidata accounts — the named trial court, the specific prison, the named murder victims, the year window of the broader execution wave, the count of defendants executed on June 21, 1877, or the distribution between the Carbon and Schuylkill County prisons. Readers are directed to /history/molly-maguires for those details, which the topic anchor carries with its own sources.
