Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: November 5, 1878 (BnF authorities; Writers of St. Petersburg. XX century) or November 5, 1878 (Writers of St. Petersburg. XX century; The Fine Art Archive) or October 24, 1878 (Russian literature of the 20th century. Volume 3, 2005).

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.
