Source-derived summary

Pedro Salvador (born 14 September 1900, date of death unknown), better known as Xingó, was a Brazilian footballer. He played in one match for the Brazil national football team in 1922. He was also part of Brazil's squad for the 1922 South American Championship.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Xingó (footballer)” as brazilian association football player. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

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—1900, 1922—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1900-09-14. The account is most persuasive where Xingó, footballer and Brazilian can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the people & ideas register because the source frames it as brazilian association football player. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

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 Aug 19, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q9383245. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1900 and 1922.

Critical limits

Public reputation and documentary evidence do not always develop together; absence from a summary is not evidence of historical absence. 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

Read biographical claims against dates, named institutions and the cited references. Distinguish a subject’s later reputation from evidence produced during their lifetime.
