Hello,
Yes that WAS a parsing error, I noticed (someone reported similar
error in talk page of my bot a while ago), I fixed and I'm writing the
correcting bot, and because I have put some quality control units(!)
in my code, the death place has to be a geographical feature
(P107=618123) or doesn't have P107 which the latter happened here. So
I need to make my bot to be more precise.
I need to add, task of my bot is harvesting information from infoboxes
i.e. turning human-written data to machine-processable data, and this
bot is working in a very large scale (It has 5.3M edits) so It's not a
strange thing that bot makes some error

There's a problem with Dexbot adding bogus values.
For example, place of death = "Welsh People" on the entry for Catrin

Since I have no broadband, due to an ISP failure, I can't post about
this on-Wiki.
Looking at the source:
| death_date = <!-- {{Death date and age|YYYY|MM|DD|1948|MM|DD|df=y}} -->
| death_place =
| residence =
| nationality = [[Welsh people|Welsh]]
Probably parsing error here. Amir, can you have a look at it? Is this
standard or custom code doing the template parsing?
