Source-derived summary

Johan Erikson (born 20 January 1985) is a Swedish ski jumper who represents Holmens IF. He had his best season in 2003/2004, when he finished the season with many top-20 finishes, including a 16th at Liberec in 2004.

Erikson has a characteristic style whereby he travels very quickly, but does not fly especially far. However, he is the Swede with the second-furthest distance of all time, with his 201 metres at Planica in 2007, after Isak Grimholm.

Editorial summary

The public source identifies “Johan Erikson” as swedish ski jumper. This brief keeps that definition visible, then builds a research path around Johan, Erikson and Swedish.

Editorial reviewA dependable orientation record for establishing vocabulary, names and a first evidence trail. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1985, 2003, 2004, 2007—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1985-01-20. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Johan, Erikson and Swedish providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Johan Erikson”, the useful work is to connect “swedish ski jumper” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Nov 10, 2024. The linked authority identifier is Q1691950. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1985, 2003, 2004 and 2007.

Critical limits

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