Source-derived summary

The 1945–46 Division 2 season was the second tier of ice hockey in Sweden for 1945–46. The league consisted of 41 teams, divided into seven geographical groups of five or six teams. The seven group winners—Brynäs IF (norra), Hofors IK (Dala), Forshaga IF (västra), Åkers IF (Sörmland), IFK Stockholm (östra), Västerås IK (Västmanland), and UoIF Matteuspojkarna (södra)—continued to a promotion qualifier, which resulted in Forshaga, Åker, Västerås, and Matteuspojkarna being promoted to Division 1 for the 1946–47 season.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as season in Swedish ice hockey. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jun 24, 2020. The linked authority identifier is Q16825822. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1945 and 1946.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. 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.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
