Another usual caveat is:
If these buggy objects appear in clusters, they might hint at a deeper
problem. Are many of them created by the same user(s) or by the same
editor(s)? If that is the case, more research might be appropriate so
that editors or workflows can be improved. Sometimes analysis of the
broken data can also point to a broken import or mass edit that has so
far been undetected and will, upon closer look, have more problems than
just these obvious ones. In such a situation, simply deleting the buggy
objects will remove the "red flags" that would otherwise have pointed at
the broken import or mass edits.
Bye
