Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “HD 4113 A b” as extrasolar planet. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA practical starting point whose main value is the path it opens into stronger specialist and primary sources. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—2023, 2010, 2008—that can be checked directly. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. The account is most persuasive where extrasolar and planet can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

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

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 23, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q5629355. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2023, 2010 and 2008.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. 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

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.
