The linked authority identifier is Q10387910. VIAF identifies the subject as 155887800. The Library of Congress control number is n87928907.

Institutional narratives can privilege the records that survived while minimizing voices that were never formally collected. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
