Identity, dates and career from the English Wikipedia article 'Azam Jan Khan' (revision 1347657026 of 8 April 2026), the Urdu article 'اعظم جان خان' (revision 10702402 of 31 May 2026) and Wikidata item Q134963622 (item revision 2491463043 of 14 May 2026), retrieved in full via the MediaWiki and Wikidata APIs on 31 October 2026. Existence checks before building: name greps for Azam Jan across data/person on origin/main returned no record of this man, and the QID Q134963622 grep returned no hit. The one relation written is the parent pair with his son Ahmad Yar Khan, attested by his own article's issue list and death notice ('succeeded by his son Ahmad Yar Khan') and written here only, in the parent's record; his father Khudadad's pair with him is written in Khudadad's record. The khanate succession itself is an office and is not a relation. No place edges are written: Kalat, Quetta and Makran have no place entities.",
