Editorial reviewA productive starting point for separating a subject’s documented career from later reputation and commemoration. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1926, 2001, 1959—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1926-07-25. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Hans, Saksvik and Norwegian providing the first useful test.

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Hans Saksvik”, the useful work is to connect “norwegian association football player (1926-2001)” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

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 Jul 28, 2026.

Critical limits

A concise life account rarely captures disputed attribution, private networks or the changing language used to describe a career. 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.
