The linked authority identifier is Q12334696. Authority coordinates are 56.077, 12.485. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.

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.
