Not verified, not eligible for this page. Upper limit for Longevity claims (where she was previously listed) is 130. Claims over 130 can be included in Longevity myths. DerbyCountyinNZ 19:39, 6 January 2025 (UTC)

Izabel Rosa Pereira

Izabel Rosa Pereira is the only person in the list not being veryfied by Gerontology Research Group. Checking "LongeviQuest", I could not even find an article in Misplaced Pages about this group. How reliable is it? Is Mrs Pereira's age verified by other groups or at least accepted for approval by Gerontology Research Group? Does it make sense to keep her listed in top ten without further evidence? Kind regards Michael 2A02:3033:701:FD68:A9CB:FA69:5C2:5C5 (talk) 21:28, 6 January 2025 (UTC)

LongeviQuest founder Robert Young is formerly of the GRG. The fans of each organization may disagree, but Misplaced Pages regards them as equally reliable. DerbyCountyinNZ 22:11, 6 January 2025 (UTC)
