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—1941, 2022, 1987—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1941-04-09. Its strongest next move is a source search built around Ingo, Glass and German.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Ingo Glass” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Ingo, Glass and German provides the most credible route into that argument.

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 Mar 18, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q105162. VIAF identifies the subject as 44610161. The Library of Congress control number is n90606048. 3 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1941, 2022 and 1987.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. 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.
