Why this record matters
A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Fernando Lorenzo”, the useful work is to connect “uruguayan economist” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.
Biographical claims are most persuasive when dates, appointments and relationships can be traced to records created close to the events described. The source revision retrieved here is dated Mar 29, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q508890. VIAF identifies the subject as 36116736. The Library of Congress control number is n92108586. 1 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1960, 1984, 1997 and 2004.
Public reputation and documentary evidence do not always develop together; absence from a summary is not evidence of historical absence. 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.
