Existence checked both ways before building: name-fragment and slug-variant greps (ziauddin, yousafzai) across data/person/ returned other Ziauddins (Ziauddin Ahmad, Ziauddin Sardar) and his daughter's record, but no record for him — the two namesakes' biographies were read and are different men — and Q8071389 appears in no existing person record. His Arabic label (ضياء الدين يوسفزي) is not shared with any existing record, so no homonym entry is needed. Relation direction checked explicitly: the registry's child_of/parent_of pair is written once, in the parent's record, as type parent_of — as in the existing record of Abadi Bano Begum — so the edge to his daughter Malala (whose record exists) is written here, from him to her, and not in her record. No born_in edge is written (Shangla has no place entity) and no founder_of edge for the Malala Fund (no group entity for it exists); both facts are stated in the summary and prose instead. His faith is recorded unknown, generic-only configuration, as set out in the faith note; his daughter's own record and schooling details are hers, not his attestation. He is recorded as living; no edition reports a death.",
