On June 3, 2024, an edit was made by 89.240.192.63 to add biographical information sourced to "Burke's Landed Gentry" and "Debrett's Peerage and Baronetage," which includes that the subject "was born in London to British contemporary artist and painter Luke Elwes, of a landed gentry family."[1] This was removed on June 4 by Zcwajel with no explanation.[2] The info has been removed and restored multiple times by these two editors. I believe my only previous edit on this is that I added it back on June 5 with an edit summary "Restoring unexplained removal of sourced content."[3] I am seeing now that it has been removed once again by Zcwajel.[4] I fail to see why noncontroversial biographical information with two sources is being repeatedly removed. So, I am going to restore it and suggest that the other involved editors discuss it here. Elspea756 (talk) 02:47, 25 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
'Landed gentry family' does give some useful background to the artist's life, but a bit vague - would something more specific and objective be better? Jimi 66 (talk) 14:43, 3 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
I agree that this gives useful information. It is very straightforward fact supported by two sources. I've added a link to "landed gentry" so readers can easily find more specifics about this British social class. Elspea756 (talk) 16:43, 3 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
