Question

[edit]

After reading the article, I think all information on Mary can be summarized in one sentence: "Mary Paleologus, who may have been related to the last Byzantine imperial family, lived with her family in England and she died unmarried in 1674." Are we sure this is enough to fill an article? Borsoka (talk) 01:28, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Borsoka: I'm responding here for both this one and Dorothy Paleologus. Yes, I was also concerned about these two in regards to notability. I did them after already having done all their male relatives and it felt weird (sexist?) to not do articles on Mary and Dorothy as well. Perhaps they could be merged into their father's (Theodore Paleologus) article? Ichthyovenator (talk) 06:00, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Not to say that GA:s have to be long (i.e. Constantine Angelos Doukas). Ichthyovenator (talk) 06:03, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I am not sure that filling an article about a woman with details of her male relatives' life is the best way to fight against sexism. :) Yes, I think merger is the best option. Borsoka (talk) 01:16, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Borsoka: That's of course true. Merging both of these articles into Theodore Paleologus (little content has to be added there since there are already brief summaries of their lives). Ichthyovenator (talk) 12:52, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. I think this was the best solution. Borsoka (talk) 13:55, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
