'Dynasty' edit

Per the comments at Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard#Punial State and related articles, I have restored the article to the state it was prior to the addition of a large amount of content relating to a supposed 'dynasty'. None of the content is cited to proper sources, and without such sources, claims about a living person being any part of a supposed 'dynasty' are a violations of Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons policy. And quite frankly, the entire 'dynasty' thing looks very much like a hoax, and will not be permitted to be restored with proper sourcing meeting Wikipedia:Reliable sources guidelines.

Possible hoax? edit

After looking through the article, seems that this whole "Punial state" is a hoax. The only results on Google go to this wikipedia page and wikiwand (which is a wikipedia interface), and an unrelated article. Looking at the only source this article uses, it seems that the book never actually mentions it. And on the wikipedia page for the book, "Punial" previously linked to Punial, instead of Punial State.

It did exist, though it is unclear just how much of the text on the page is made-up. Curbon7 (talk) 00:23, 18 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
