Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: November 16, 1673 (Great Russian Encyclopedia Portal) or November 6, 1673 (BnF authorities; Great Russian Encyclopedia) or November 6, 1672 (Historical Encyclopedia of Siberia).

The main date retains its own sources. These alternatives overlap neither all other statements nor the main date. Rank is Wikidata editorial priority, not proof.
