I would like to suggest a feature that allows marking a person as "deceased," preventing new images from being assigned to them. **Background:** When a person is deceased, they can only appear in photos taken before their date of death. Images taken after this date cannot possibly include this person. To make this functionality flexible, it should be possible to enable or disable this restriction. This is necessary in cases where the image capture date may not accurately reflect when the photo was taken (e.g., when scanning old slides that are newly digitized but were originally taken before the person's death). **How it could work:** - If a date of death is set for a person and this feature is enabled, face detection or person suggestions for this individual should only occur for photos with a capture date earlier than the date of death. This feature would improve the accuracy and logic of person assignments in photo libraries, especially for large archives.
This wish has already been submitted once. We have already discussed it and rejected it. Our goal is to further improve face recognition so that such "crutches" are not necessary. Maik

Hi - from a bug triage perspective, this one looks like a duplicate of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=459499 - however, you mentioned that the concept in this request has been rejected. Should both this and 459499 then be in RESOLVED/INTENTIONAL status or something like that (or are they actually different issues and I just misunderstood)?

I'll close both issues in BugZilla. I hope you like the improvements to the face engine coming 8.6.0. We're always working to make face recognition more accurate. Cheers, Mike
