Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Glyadkovo” as human settlement in Velikoustyugsky District, Vologda Oblast, Russia. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA strong orientation record where physical form, institutional use and historical geography need to be read together. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—2002—that can be checked directly. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. The account is most persuasive where Glyadkovo, human and settlement can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the places & architecture register because the source frames it as human settlement in Velikoustyugsky District, Vologda Oblast, Russia. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Place names and jurisdictional language are key evidence: both can reveal earlier catalogue descriptions and overlooked record series. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 15, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q13651371. Authority coordinates are 60.822, 46.356. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2002.

Critical limits

Modern boundaries and familiar names can conceal earlier jurisdictions or structures that do not align with the present site. 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

Treat names, boundaries and functions as historically changeable. Maps, plans, inventories and administrative records can clarify what the place meant at different dates.
