I read this sentence in the text: "He died in 1826 when Alfred Krupp was 14 years old and left to his son the secret of making high-quality cast steel" Is this an ok sentence in Wikipedia? Hummusapiens (talk) 10:10, 5 March 2025 (UTC)Reply

Confusing sentence

In the personal life section: "According to historian William Manchester, his great grandson, Krupp would interpret these outbursts as a prophecy fulfilled by the coming of Hitler.^{[citation needed]}"

Alfred Krupp died too soon to witness the rise of Hitler, so there is no way that this could refer to this Krupp. Perhaps the editor who added this is confusing Alfred Krupp with Alfried Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach, who ran the Krupp corporation during WWII?
