Emil Roth Death Date

[Feedback from Irina]

I did a search for Emil Roth; only a small biography comes up. [...] Plus, the date of his death came up as 1980 instead of 1980; this is not a fault of the archive data, since it comes from a different database - Alex was unable to rectify it on CMS when I pointed it out.

Thanks for reporting, that seems to be a but in the transformation. We will check on that.

Dear Irina, we found the root of the error:

the wrong death actually has been in the Archives data (a simple typo, I assume). The error has only been fixed some 10 days ago, see screenshots below (on Oct 18th 22). An update of the data will be required and will fix the problem.

I am attaching the screenshots for verification.
