How do you manage the digital legacy of a deceased executive or founder?

Legacy management for deceased executives or founders is a specific discipline with its own conventions. The structural work: Wikipedia is updated through standard processes with proper sourcing on the death and on the full career, with attention to NPOV – articles about recently deceased figures attract editing and benefit from active stewardship; Wikidata is updated to reflect dates and the full property set; the corporate or family foundation site is updated to lead with the legacy framing rather than the operational period; AI narrative monitoring through AIQ™ captures how each engine describes the legacy and which sources they are weighting, with particular attention to misattributed quotes or unsupported claims that often propagate in AI responses about prominent deceased figures. Where the family or foundation continues active work, ongoing authoritative content tied to that work keeps the picture current. Sanitized versions never hold up against Wikipedia or AI engine cross-checking.
