Considering his article has about 150 footnotes, all of them citing reliable
sources, I think what you're saying is a bit disingenuous. The reliable
sources may say that there's no reliable information about him, but we can
reliably say that "so-and-so believes X about him, but Y says this is not
necessarily reliable".
