Major WP:OR issue, likely created by someone related to said family and trying to promote it on Wikipedia. There's no historical research discussing a Polish noble family of that name in more then passing (yes, some people with that name had that coat of arms, but that doesn't make the family notable - that requires sources saying the family was important, etc.). The best I found was an entry in Polish encyclopedia [1] - but it describes this family as notable in the context of... circus performers.

  • Prune heavily (or delete) -- The part about the noble family is probably correct and notable, but this is being used as a handle to house short bio-articles on people who have the surname (but are not nobles) and are probably NN. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:18, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I'm happy to be wrong, but I agree with Piotrus that there doesn't seem to be and research into this family as a family group. Smmurphy(Talk) 02:42, 15 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
