GET /person/{person_id} request response message: "The resource you requested could not be found"

Great work making the database and api freely accessible.
It seems as though some get requests for certain people with an id in the range of 1 and latest_person_id (eg id_number 87 ) are responded to with the above message. Is this because there was someone in the database with an id that has been deleted? Will these holes be filled up in the future?

Yes, this is because items are deleted. They will 404. There are lots of gaps in all of the media namespaces. Ids are never reused.
I will be publishing some files with the valid ids sometime soon, keep an eye on the blog for details.
