Adjusting the Wikidata records for those executed after the 1820 Radical War led me to a broader query on the grim topic of people in Scotland who were subjected to judicial killing.

- I noticed the killings of some Covenanters were missing, and adjusted the data. Some others probably remain missing, especially where they were killed summarily.
