This biography appears to have an extremely sketchy basis for its notability, which appears to be primarily derived from the fact that the subject's mother is a notable entry as the founder of a church. Most of the sources attributed to this article merely affirm that the individual was indeed born, with little further information - certainly nothing justifying this rather expansive biographical entry. The sourcing, overall, seems extremely poor. [[User:Iskandar323|Iskandar323]] ([[User talk:Iskandar323|talk]]) 15:10, 15 October 2021 (UTC)

This biography appears to have an extremely sketchy basis for its notability, which appears to be primarily derived from the fact that the subject's mother is a notable entry as the founder of a church. Most of the sources attributed to this article merely affirm that the individual was indeed born, with little further information - certainly nothing justifying this rather expansive biographical entry.
