Database reports/Deaths at Wikipedia

It looks like the bot that updates Wikidata:Database reports/Deaths at Wikipedia(and subpages) stopped working sometime in July. I noticed on that page's Talk that you had talked about getting it working a couple years ago; if you are still responsible for it, would it be possible to get it up and running again? If not, who should I talk to?

Thanks for the notice.

The bot uses the petscan tool for data retrieval in the background, and it seems that the petscan endpoint has changed recently. I have updated it and triggered the job to run now, and based on this diff I am optimistic that it is fit again. The other reports will likely take a couple of hours to update as well.

Thanks for the quick fix! It looks good to me now.
