The NLR id XXXXXXXXX is not valid

I'm seeing this large notice in red on all kinds of Authority control templates now. Also "The BNC id XXXXXXXXXX is not valid". Sample: [1]. Could someone please fix this? Softlavender (talk) 08:34, 3 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There are currently nearly 700 NLR invalid messages on Authority Control templates: [2], and at least 170 BNC invalid messages: [3]. -- Softlavender (talk) 10:15, 3 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Link WorldCat Identities

Hello dear colleagues, The link to WorldCat has obviously been changed (see above) and is therefore marked green (if one has the preferences set to mark such links, I find it distracting). It should be corrected to the current link which is [[WorldCat#History]], shouldn't it? Where can that be fixed though, I wonder?
