The Park Estate, Nottingham — Historical Record

Loads any prepared works list in data/ onto the matching person. Safe to run more than once — it never duplicates an entry.

Copies occupations recorded on census entries onto the people themselves, so they appear in the People page, the group chips and the occupation filter. Preview first — it shows what it would do without changing anything.

Finds London Gazette links written into biographies and records them as proper citations with their issue and page.

Searches the official record for people whose entry already suggests an honour or public office — not everyone, because a national record returns a different person of the same name for most residents. Results are filtered against their lifetime and appear as suggestions to confirm, never as facts.

For a household filed against the wrong house. Moves every census record from one property to another, and the resident links with them. Leave to blank to unfile instead, sending the records back to the unresolved queue when the right address is not yet known. Fill only these people to move one household out of an address holding several. Preview first — it lists each record by name and year before anything changes.

A slipped column put "Married, Female" and the like into the source field, where the provenance should be. Both halves are real: the sex fills a blank on the person, the marital status moves to its own column. Only then is the source cleared, so nothing is thrown away.

The census entries hold far more birth places than the person records do. Copies one onto anybody whose own record is blank. Never overwrites, and leaves alone anyone whose entries disagree with each other.

The same person can be linked to the same property twice — nothing in the database prevents it. Keeps one of each and removes the rest.

A slipped column in an import leaves a sex or a relationship in the occupation field, and a spreadsheet's placeholder leaves a dash. "Servant" and "wife" are plausible enough to survive the filter and skew the occupation counts. Preview lists every one by name before anything is cleared.

A pasted spreadsheet sometimes brings its own column headings with it, and they end up filed as residents. This lists any record whose name is a heading rather than a name, plus any with no name at all. Nothing is deleted — each one links to its record, where the delete button lives.

Adds people prepared in data/ — figures found in someone else's biography with no record of their own — and links them to their properties. Matches on name, so it never creates a duplicate.
