Summary5789: ProfilePage schema requires mainEntity property which is missing in Composr
Descriptionschema.org/ProfilePage requires a mainEntity, which is a Person or Organization. But this is missing in Composr.

ProfilePage is used in the Authors addon but might be used elsewhere. Search everywhere for its use and fix accordingly. We will need to add a new radio selection to choose between Person and Organization when adding or editing an author.

We may need to fundamentally edit the authors addon / screen to include additional fields as defined by Person or Organization entities.

As mainEntity is required, we must decide on the behavior of authors:

a) Continue allowing the auto-creation of new authors when specifying one that does not exist; default to Person, and document this behavior.

b) Forbid typing in an author that does not exist; it must be manually created by adding a new author so that we can explicitly define if it's a Person or Organization.

This issue likely also exists in v11 so I tagged as such.

Actually this may require a fundamental edit of the authors addon because a mainEntity is not merely "Person" or "Organization"... it is a schema item of a Person or an Organization.

Dropped from v10 and v11 roadmaps; switched to over the horizon. I'm not sure how essential this is. Google can be a bit weird about how they phrase things. And with the growing trend of AI, SEO is becoming less important.

Changed back to v11, but that might just be to remove the offending markup (for now at least).
