Thanks, Smit. I've read about that on the property chat for P21. I haven't been able to get it to work. Here's an example (I know this person's gender and fixed the statement after taking this screen shot of my feeble attempt at "unknown value"). Am I doing it wrong?

citation needed constraint are overdue for P21.
Note that this is currently handled by setting that property to "unknown value" and adding an explanation in a reference.
