Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Erik Andersson (ice hockey, born 1986)” as swedish ice hockey player (b. 1986). Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA useful biographical orientation record, particularly for establishing names, roles and a first chronology. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1986, 2005, 2006, 2007—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1986-09-18. The account is most persuasive where Erik, Andersson and hockey can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the people & ideas register because the source frames it as swedish ice hockey player (b. 1986). Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

The entry’s evidential value lies in the named roles, institutions and publications that can be tested against primary documentation. The source revision retrieved here is dated Dec 3, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q5388461. VIAF identifies the subject as 308700226. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1986, 2005, 2006 and 2007.

Critical limits

A concise life account rarely captures disputed attribution, private networks or the changing language used to describe a career. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Read biographical claims against dates, named institutions and the cited references. Distinguish a subject’s later reputation from evidence produced during their lifetime.
