I was browsing ] and saw this. It’s rare that I approve of a PROD as strongly as this one (in fact I think the procedure should be banned for abuse as CSD and ''en bloc'' AfD suffice), but this page is useless.

In fact, it looks more like a quasi-hoax to me due to the multiple factual inconsistencies. Obviously there have been people that name (like the 19th century portrait sitter depicted there; by the way, ], the artist, died in <s>1867 IIRC</s> 1873), but the article is pure fiction. Nice work spotting it.

Cheers, ] (]) 22:20, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

:But also, as you’re a relatively new editor, please please please be circumspect about using PROD. It’s not a good way to deal with many of the pages that end up there and we have too many experienced editors already who like to bend the rules. Again, thank you. ] (]) 22:25, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
::I thought it was strange that I couldn't find any factual evidence about the person or what information I found simply did not match with what was on the article. The chief reason I used PROD was it seemed like it wouldn't be controversial to delete it as the notification about lacking sources had been present since 2009 and I myself was unable to find any verifiable sources, and the article had been more or less untouched for awhile. I am unlikely to use PROD in the future, I understand your concerns. <b>]</b> 22:26, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
:Also, regarding the portrait by ], that appears to be an Hr.Jadwiga Branicka z Potockich. Siostra Hr. Pelagii Potockiej. Portret autorstwa Franca Xawera Winterhaltera(1805-1873) per and . It also aligns with source that says he painted Jadwiga Branicka née Potocka. <b>]</b> 22:40, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

== About Thomas Lockley's article ==

Hello.
New information has been brought to us regarding Lockley's article.
I've sent the same information to a few people in case they haven't noticed.
Please check the contents if you wish.

:I mean this with the utmost sincereity and respect I can muster -- I do not care. The only reason I participated in that talk page was trying to help narrow down when exactly he taught and at which institution. When I could not find anything conclusive, I moved on. <b>]</b> 04:30, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

I don't feel competent to offer an "official" third opinion, but from reading through the debate, it's clear to me that you have the right of it.

Just thought I'd offer some encouragement, since it looks like two different users decided to take issue with the "prostitutes" descriptor, heh—hopefully, a more-qualified user than I will be able to convince 'em.

Cheers,

:The ironic part of this is that I am not advocating in any way for the inclusion of the word "Prostitute" on the article. The other editor keeps adding mentions of prostitutes. All I suggested is that the lead should represent what the reliable sources say, which is that geji sometimes had sex with their clients. At no point did I ever say that the word "prostitute" should be added. <b>]</b> 20:37, 3 September 2024 (UTC)

:Thanks! I chose to do Articles for Creation because I wasn't completely confident in just making an article myself. In theory, I figured others might be able to find some fault I might have overlooked during creation, and if so, that would be good for the encyclopedia. <b>]</b> 21:01, 12 September 2024 (UTC)
