Why this record matters
“Thomas Michelsen” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Thomas, Michelsen and Norwegian provides the most credible route into that argument.
Biographical claims are most persuasive when dates, appointments and relationships can be traced to records created close to the events described. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 25, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q3990693. VIAF identifies the subject as 3786149108408868780003. 1 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1970, 1990, 1993 and 1996.
Later biographies can compress uncertainty and repeat inherited reputations, so apparently settled claims may still require comparison. 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.
