Reddened magnitudes can be obtained by adding {lambda}_f_*E(B-V) with {lambda}_f_=(3.172, 2.271, 1.682, 1.322, 1.087) for (gP1mag, rP1mag, iP1mag, zP1mag, yP1mag), see Schlafly & Finkbeiner (2011ApJ...737..103S). For the VIKING quasars, the magnitudes reported in the iP1mag column are actually i magnitudes from the KiDS survey.
