Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: in 1415 (Λεξικό Νεοελληνικής Λογοτεχνίας; Biblioteca Virtual Miguel de Cervantes; Integrated Authority File; Great Norwegian Encyclopedia) or in 1416 (Censimento nazionale delle edizioni italiane del XVI secolo; Catalogue of the Library of the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas; digitale.beic.it).

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.
