Zaaiman-44 and Zaaijman-16 do not represent the same person because: The merge must go the other way around. I'll do the final integration of the bio after that.
Zaaijman-16 and Zaaiman-44 appear to represent the same person because: Please investigate. This seems to be the same person surname spelled different, Zaaijman-16 have less info I think it is still the same person AS Zaaiman-44. See spelling of surname, maybe it should also be Zaaijman.
