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 Q2210130. VIAF identifies the subject as 300079267. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.

Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
