Rewshe Qasim

Rewshe Qasim, 137, was born in 1887 in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. She is considered the oldest person in the world and Iraq.I want it listed in that article. Ari Qasm (talk) 15:05, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

Does not qualify for inclusion. Appropriate article is Longevity myths. DerbyCountyinNZ 18:41, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

The oldest living man in the world is only 112 years and 83 days?

So João Marinho Neto born on 05 October 1912 is the oldest living man on Earth? That can't be right. In a remote village on the mountains of Yunnan, China, every family has at least one man older than 110. 112 years old is not that impressive really, I have a friend whose great-grandma is already 106 years old and she is still going strong. 120.16.36.85 (talk) 08:06, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

Longevity claims and Longevity myths are full of similar unverified claims. DerbyCountyinNZ 10:13, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
