Audit: Concept Articles That Should Be People
Summary
45 of 116 concept articles are person-profile duplicates — biographical articles
filed under wiki/concepts/ that already have a matching article in wiki/people/
with the same slug.
In 44 of 45 cases the concept version is the older, richer article (created May–July 2026), while the people version is a shorter stub created later (August 2026). The concept versions collectively hold ~900 more lines of content.
The remaining 71 concept articles are correctly categorized (technologies, buildings, organizations, events, publications, places).
