Adam Barghouti; the Barghouti name; Mourid Barghouti

"Adam Barghouti is a future leader of the Barghouti family. He is going to be controlling the Barghouti fortune." appears between "Barghouti family" and List of notable members. His name doesn't appear elsewhere in English WP or in Arabic WP {searched using Google Translate} or Hebrew WP. Is there any reason that line shouldn't be deleted?

Lol; none, and

Done, (Thanks for spotting this!) Huldra (talk) 23:46, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Pure chance. I happened to look at all the notifications in my Fb Your Notifications list {usually I only search for posts/comments connected to family/some friends and reactions to my posts/comments} and noticed What is the origin of the Barghouti name? in The Engagement Movement group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/134177083100/posts/10159725932153101/. Not being able to resist websearching I found that and wondered about it. Mcljlm (talk) 00:00, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, when you wrote "What is the origin of the Barghouti name?"; I "read" that as if it is about the name; Barghouti, not about the origin of the family. And about the name, Mourid Barghouti writes about that in "I Saw Ramallah", cheers, Huldra (talk) 22:35, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I found the relevant passage on page 52 of a Google Books preview at https://books.google.co.il/books?id=5jMAHktJ8lIC&pg=PA52&lpg=PA52&dq=%22came+by+the+name+al-barghouti%22&source=bl&ots=2JjwCWsov-&sig=ACfU3U0dc9eqtMGUIsM6aU7aplMT7EyUBA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwju9KXoluv6AhXi_7sIHcGNBHkQ6AF6BAgIEAM#v=onepage&q=%22came%20by%20the%20name%20al-barghouti%22&f=false.

The book is described as an autobiographical novel. How reliable is the information there and generally? I notice on page 99 of the sequel I Was Born There, I Was Born Here https://books.google.co.il/books?id=f27fRtrddYMC&pg=PA99&dq=%22Nawaf%22%22Barghouti%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjq2vGipOv6AhUS_KQKHSG-BAwQ6AF6BAgKEAI#v=onepage&q=%22Nawaf%22%22Barghouti%22&f=false he mentions the name on his birth certificate. Would that would be reliable enough to add to his article?

The Engagement Movement is a Public group. If you're a Facebook user perhaps you could add a reply. Mcljlm (talk) 23:28, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I am not on Facebook, cheers, Huldra (talk) 21:29, 19 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Any idea how reliable the family information is? Mcljlm (talk) 22:29, 19 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, absolutely no idea. The info mention in 52ff about the Bargouti name is IMO interesting though, we should possible add that to this article, (attributed to Mourid Barghouti of course). The info about the mix-up of Mourid Barghouti's name is less interesting, IMO, Huldra (talk) 22:56, 19 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
