The result was delete. No sources = no article. "Verifiable" means: "Readers must be able to check that any of the information within Wikipedia articles is not just made up. This means all material must be attributable to reliable, published sources." It does not mean "sources may perhaps exist somewhere".  Sandstein  22:11, 17 January 2020 (UTC)

A completely unsourced biography on a supposed historical figure. I was unable to find anything in reliable sources discussing him, and even our article on the town he is said to have established has no mention of him. I am bringing it to AFD, rather than simply PRODing it, though, since I realize that sources regarding historical figures may exist and simply cannot be found online, or may be found under various other English spellings, so other people may have more luck during the course of the AFD discussion at finding them. Otherwise, unsourced content should not be retained. Rorshacma (talk) 20:25, 10 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment -- This is a credible account. We have articles on British peers, so that I do not see why we should not have ones on Indian rajas, provided they had a status rather greater than gentry.  This does not raise BLP issues, so that the question is whether the content is verifable (as opposed to verified).  Peterkingiron (talk) 16:15, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
