Yes, I deleted it. When that happens on Wikipedia the process is to post to the talk page and initate discussion, per what we call Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle. After the first revert it would have been best to start a discussion here instead of re-adding. That can be considered edit warring.As for your edit, this is what we call a featured article. Generally it's best to discuss edits and changes to featured articles, because there are main editors here as well as people who were involved in reviewing and have been stewarding the article.In my view, an infobox has limited utility for a person whose name is unknown, whose birth dates and death dates are unknown, etc. Victoria (tk) 23:47, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
