Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: February 9, 1866 (International Music Score Library Project; Find a Grave; Encyclopædia Britannica Online; Nouveau Dictionnaire des auteurs de tous les temps et de tous les pays; SNAC) or February 7, 1866 (IMDb).
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.
