Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: September 7, 1884 (Hvem er Hvem? (1912); historical register of persons; lokalhistoriewiki.no) or September 6, 1884 (BnF authorities; BD Gest'; Integrated Authority File).
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.
