? Also it seems that [[User:Vycl1994]] is adding that information here, but not in Wikidata. Here it is a one-user show, in Wikidata it would mean collaboration with other users. [[Special:Contributions/77.11.92.241|77.11.92.241]] ([[User talk:77.11.92.241|talk]]) 19:55, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
::I don't know if anyone else considers this a clarification, per se, but for the most part, I have been using #Parallel VIAF clusters for one identity for redlinks and potential articles linked via {{tl|ill}}. Wikilinks
::IP, you also questioned me about duplicate authority files at [[Talk:Sunney Chan#VIAF]], but because the question is about authority control and not the article, I'll answer here. Authority control external links that appear in articles on English Wikipedia are pulled via Wikidata. but Wikidata shows a "single value constraint" error if both are listed. My only fix is to remove the duplicates. Choosing one identity to retain is false as there are often several. So, if there is a differentiated authority control, I move it to Wikidata, but when there are two or more differentiated datasets, I list them here only. You'll notice that [[Thomas McLernon Greene]], for example, has three VIAF datasets, two differentiated GND datasets, and two differentiated NLI datasets. All other authority control properties except those three are listed on Wikidata, solely to avoid the "single value constraint" error message.
