Erik X Knutsson has the wrong mother ?!
Eric X, King of Sweden

It probably should not be Ingeborg Eriksson (Bengtsdotter)
Ingeborg Bengtsdotter
Who has been created by no one ("no name")
Instead it probably should be : Cecilia Johansdotter
Princess Cecilia Johansdotter of Sweden

Can this be corrected and if so how, as it would be better to have a common view than one that is not supported by facts ?

Eric X of Sweden, Swedish: Erik Knutsson; Old Norse: Eiríkr Knútsson (c. 1180 – 10 April 1216) was the King of Sweden between 1208 and 1216. Also known as Eric the Survivor (Swedish: "Erik som överlevde") when he became king, he was the only remaining son of King Canute I of Sweden and his queen of an undetermined name, who probably was Cecilia Johansdotter. He was born around 1180 in Eriksberg royal manor

@ Per Olof Johansson:

I agree.

Cecilia Johansdotter of Sweden is commonly seen as the mother of Erik X Knutsson, king of Sweden. Even though there's almost no traces left of her and very little is known about her, she is usually seen as the wife of Canute I and mother of Erik X Knutsson.

Perhaps the profiles created by 'No Name' should be transferred to someone else - after being checked and confirmed? Perhaps should users as 'No Name' be permanently removed? (I guess this is a curator/moderator thingy...).

Kindest regards,

I have moved him to the unknown NN Johansdotter.

The Ingeborg Bengtsdotter profile is still connected to Knut but without children. Delete it if she never was a partner of Knut.
