material removed in copyedit[edit]

I've just done a copyedit of the page. There were two short passages of information I removed that I wanted to leave here in case anyone wants to reinsert them into the article in a more readable form. In the first one, the original author's propensity for brackets/parentheses gets away from them, and I wasn't sure where to place the missing closing bracket so that I could figure out what information was being conveyed:

The second son of the Steward Prince Dmitri Seyushevich Yusupov-Knyazhevo (died 1694) (twice married to Ekaterina Yakovlevna Sumarokova and to Princess Tatiana Fyodorovna Korkodinova (died 1719) (the first one, Prince Matvei Dmitrievich Yusupov, Steward, died young), Prince Grigori Dmitrievich Yusupov (17 November 1676, Moscow - 2 September 1730, Moscow), General in Chief and Minister of Defence, was a friend of Peter the Great and helped him with the construction of the Russian Navy.

There's nothing grammatically correct about this one, it's just that most of this information isn't really relevant to the article and cramming it in like this made it impossible to follow:

Boris moved to the Moika palace in St. Petersburg (also known as Yusupov Palace) with his second wife, Zenaida Ivanovna Narishkina, (who later became Comtesse de Chauveau, Marquise de Serre through her second marriage) (18 May 1810 – 26 February 1893) daughter of Ivan Dimitrievitch Narishkin (17 April 1776 – 15 April 1840), Marshal of the Sytchev Nobility in 1829 and later a Chamberlain, and a relative of Peter the Great's mother, and Varvara Ivanovna Narishkina, née Ladomirsky (17 May 1785 – 26 November 1840), and their only son Nikolai. He was previously married without any offspring to Princess Praskovia Pavlovna Shcherbatova (6 July 1795 – 17 October 1820).

False informations[edit]

Today, while I was reading about Yussupov family, I had spotted that someone left a huge amount of false informations about offsprings of Felix and Irina. It’s widely known that they had only one child, a daughter named Irina. Their writings and photographs show us that. But someone here wrote that they also had a son, so called ‘Prince John’. Pure stupidity. However, that person left those false informations on every page connected to Irina and Felix. Looking throughout those stupidities I realised that is probably some young person - you can see a constant mention of the great grandson of so called prince, 3 young men with inconsistency when it comes to their titles (two of them are princes, the youngest one is count) and their surnames and patronym. I don’t want to accuse anyone but the fact is that someone is sharing false informations here. Accuracy15 (talk) 00:06, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
