Additional information (need more reliable source)

I found this Facebook post which contains a more in-depth biography of him, but it's not reliable for a reference ([1]). It seems to have more information on his works and career too. Can anyone find this repeated in a reliable source? Note that the sources may not be in English. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:15, 17 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Article is new and long enough, with no substantial copyvio detected. Hook is interesting and cited inline. QPQ done. AGF on the lone Arabic source. ps. fixed what I assumed was a typo (Ughur instead of Uyghur) in the hook. Cheers, Kingoflettuce (talk) 09:50, 18 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
