Hello, Do we have a foolproof way of iterating over all biographies of living people? If not, is it time we introduced a flag, or even just a category "Living person", to do so?
Hum.
For all bios with categories, then if it's in [[Category:xxxx births]] where xxxx is greater than 1890, but not in any [[Category:yyyy deaths]], they're either alive or need updated.
We can catch another batch by searching anything with a bio-stub tag and categorising them, then rechecking. Anything else we have no real way of finding, since there's nothing to define an article's content without actually reading it.
