Basically what Daniel proposed is, that it would be best practice that
for every string that refers to a concept, event, thing, person,

entity should be created.

I could imagine this as a possible and perhaps elegant solution. My
concern is the handling of unknown identity and a workflow towards
improved identity recognition, not a discussion string versus item.

In the proposed case, would there be a problem with creating a "human name" entity that would not be a person and linking to that? If it is confirmed that certain link to this entity is a known person, it could be simply changed.
