Respectfully disagree. I share the same first name and birth year as 3 of my first cousins, (yes, I come from a large family), does that imply that we should merge all our profiles into one?
Northumbria-83 and Sweden-26 do not represent the same person because: Although Sven of Sweden might possibly be from a unreliable source, it seems better to merge with a profile closer to the same name.
I'm not an expert, but I don't think we know these are real people at all anyway. The first king of Sweden accepted as historically known is Erik the Victorious (Segersäll-13 in Wikitree, although "Segersäll" is not a surname) and he came after this. I don't know who this "Sven of Sweden" is even when I look at lists of the legendary kings.

Current profile information has this person born after their parent's death, which has raised an error in Wikitree's database.
Please can this be investigated with the view to potential correction using sources?
Thank you,
