I was browsing cat:allprod 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, Franz Xaver Winterhalter, the artist, died in 1867 IIRC 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.
