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 May 10, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q108800260. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1969, 1995, 1997 and 2000.
