    I just found that there also are cases with

    'time' => 'bad'

    See for example
    https://www.wikidata.org/w/__api.php?action=wbgetclaims&__entity=Q7415505&format=xml
    <https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=wbgetclaims&entity=Q7415505&format=xml>.
    It has the time given as "+00000001984-23-01T00:00:00Z"__; note that

    the month number is 23.


A list of "bad" time values would also be very helpful.  The "bad" value
type is used to flag values that can't be "parsed" into one of the valid
types.  These were likely added when wikidata has less strict validation
of api input so are still in the database.

I will make a list, but I had to modify my database dump parser program once more after also finding the "bad" time values and restart reading the database dump, so it take some extra time to be ready.


No hurry. 

Cheers,
Katie

 


A bot would be able to fix them or they can be removed/re-added.

Cheers,
