Where can I find a listing of published genealogies that are known to be incorrect

I understand some genealogies were purposely falsified. I have also heard that there is a list identifying known fraudulent genealogies. Can anyone direct me to such a list? Thank you!

Look for Gustave Anjou was a infamous forger, who created many fraudulent genealogies. Family Search Wiki https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Fraudulent Genealogies has a list of 305 of these.

Thank you!

When I clicked on that link, the page said, "There is currently no text in this page" ...

However, I found https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Fraudulent_Genealogies by searching Gustave Anjou in the FS Research Wiki

Several links on that page lead to sites now on Internet Archive's WayBack Machine. Other web pages do not exist anymore. The titles, journals and articles still lead to helpful information and most especially knowing the fraudulent authors will be very helpful.

Thank you very much!
