Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Nimantha Peiris” as sri Lankan cricketer. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA practical starting point whose main value is the path it opens into stronger specialist and primary sources. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1994, 2021, 2020—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1994-04-18. The account is most persuasive where Nimantha, Peiris and Lankan can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as sri Lankan cricketer. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 16, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q106153088. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1994, 2021 and 2020.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. 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.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
