Validated ID Numbers

The script phi_postprocessing.lua (see Configure Post Processing) includes steps to validate ID numbers that are found by Eduction.

The script increases the score for matches that have a valid checksum, because this is an indication that the match is more likely to be genuine.

The following tables list the entities that are validated.
