Why this record matters
A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Mikael Reuterswärd”, the useful work is to connect “swedish mountain climber” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.
The strongest evidence will usually combine a dated visual record with documents produced by the authority responsible for the place. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 25, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q6164382. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1964, 2010, 1990 and 1994.
A single description cannot reconcile every naming convention, rebuilding phase or administrative transfer associated with a place. 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.
