Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: April 6, 1890 (Great Norwegian Encyclopedia; Léonore database; La France savante; Croatian Encyclopedia; Proleksis Encyclopedia; BnF authorities) or April 10, 1890 (Nouveau dictionnaire de biographie alsacienne).

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.
