| 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. | |||

| :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) | |||
