Editorial summary

The public source identifies “Matija Horvat” as croatian association football player. This brief keeps that definition visible, then builds a research path around Matija, Horvat and Croatian.

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—1999, 2021, 2024, 2026—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1999-05-07. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Matija, Horvat and Croatian providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Matija Horvat”, the useful work is to connect “croatian association football player” 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 29, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q48970553. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1999, 2021, 2024 and 2026.

Critical limits

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