Amanda Nylander
figure skater
Amanda Nylander (born 20 April 1990) is a Swedish figure skater. She placed 15th at the 2005 World Junior Championships and 17th at the 2006 World Championships. She started skating as a child, in Älta. Her coach was Marie Olsson. She is the twin sister of Isabelle Nylander, who also competed in figure skating.
Despite being seen as future medal hope in the Olympic Games, Nylander quit figure skating soon after her World Championships success, failing to find the motivation for the practice required for an elite figure skater. She attempted a comeback in 2012.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Amanda Nylander” as figure skater. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as figure skater. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 8, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q4739717. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1990, 2005, 2006 and 2012.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. 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.
