Person Schema

Person is an entity description that can be nested inside an article’s author property, whereas ProfilePage describes the page focused on that person. For coauthored work, list authors as an array so each contributor is identified transparently. As automated content production expands, accurately identifying the people who wrote or reviewed material remains valuable context. Markup should reflect genuine contributions and does not independently establish expertise.

Business applications and impact#

Helps systems reconcile author identity and stated credentials and may contribute to accurate entity understanding.

Implementation guidance and considerations#

Use sameAs links that genuinely identify the person and keep jobTitle and worksFor consistent with their actual current role.
