Usual scenario: 1. All occurences of entities in doc/ tree need to be replaced with hardcoded name of person. 2. Person need to be added to Developers Alumni List 3. Entity need to be removed. PS: Please note that authors.ent is shared across translations of doc/ tree (i.e. present in non-english directories). These cases need to be addressed (translations need to be synchronized with english removal) before removing entities itself.
