Why this record matters
A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Roberto Aguilar”, the useful work is to connect “bolivian politician” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.
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 6, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q7351747. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1958, 2008, 2019 and 2006.

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.
