2026-10-25 [entries] Fix parse bugs and improve the metadata of existing entries by Tiago de Paula Peixoto c996a0e

From a review of the dataset descriptions against the upstream sources
and papers, and from user reports:

- parse fixes (wrong edge direction or directedness, shifted or
  misnamed properties, merged node identities, duplicated or missing
  edges and nodes, wrong types), e.g. arxiv_citation (the HepTh dates
  were a copy of the HepPh ones; now from the KDD Cup 2003 data),
  eu_procurements, foursquare_global, hiv_transmission, genetic_multiplex,
  gnutella (adds the 05 snapshot), roadnet, macaque_neural, python_dependency
- descriptions rewritten from the upstream sources, documenting every
  property
- corrected titles, citations and DOIs, licences (ustream_license typo,
  the data's own terms), tags and ICON ids
- url lists for entries with several sources or dataset pages
- SocioPatterns entries moved to the site's new data location, with the
  daily networks of sp_infectious and sp_primary_school
- the Michael Fire entries marked as orphans (served from the mirror)
- redundant type forcings removed after the graph-tool coercion fixes

+description = r"""A multiplex network of marriage and business ties among 16 elite families of Renaissance Florence, from the historical data on the rise of the Medici (c. 1400-1434) compiled by J. F. Padgett and collaborators from archival sources. This is the widely used subset of 16 families selected by R. Breiger and P. Pattison from Padgett's larger data set; the version here is the one distributed by M. De Domenico. Nodes are families, and an undirected edge in the marriage layer connects two families linked by a marriage, while an edge in the business layer connects families with recorded financial ties, such as loans, credits and joint partnerships. The marriage layer has 20 edges and the business layer 15; the Pucci family has no ties in either layer.
+
+The network has the following properties:
+
+- `name` and `nodeLabel`: the family name (abbreviated to at most nine letters, e.g. `ACCIAIUOL`, `TORNABUON`).
+- `layer` (edges): 1 for marriage alliances, 2 for business ties; the graph property `layer_key` maps these numbers to layer names.
+- `weight` (edges): always 1."""
