Marks, W. (merged into Marks, Wilhelm)

Merged. This record and Marks, Wilhelm were predicted to be one person on 1 October 2026 by the identity rules, read against the printed entries, at the level “certain”. That is a statistical prediction a person has not yet audited, and it is reversible. Every claim this record carried has been moved there, and every mention that pointed here now points there.

One dictionary entry printed in two books — joined by rule D5, a statistical prediction (owner's sample of 1 Oct 2026: 27 right, 0 wrong, 3 can't tell, of 30 read across the book pairings (docs/joins-sample-2026-09-30.html) — precision at least ~89% at 95% confidence): “Marks, W. * 1847, † 1902.”. Way back: wp bb duplicates unmerge marks-w –allow-published –apply.

The two printed entries were compared on what they state — years, places, named relations, addresses — and the prediction carries both quoted passages so that a person can read them and disagree. The complete pre-merge state of both records is preserved in this project’s archive of withdrawn records, kept deliberately apart from the live records so that no import can resurrect it. The source material was not touched: every scan, transcript and mention of either name remains in the corpus.
