Source-derived summary

Sergey Yanin (born 14 October 1953) is a Soviet ski jumper. He competed in the large hill event at the 1972 Winter Olympics.

Editorial summary

The public source identifies “Sergey Yanin” as soviet ski jumper. This brief keeps that definition visible, then builds a research path around Sergey, Yanin and Soviet.

Editorial reviewA concise reference frame for defining the subject, testing terminology and identifying the institution closest to the evidence. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1953, 1972—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1953-10-14. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Sergey, Yanin and Soviet providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Sergey Yanin”, the useful work is to connect “soviet ski jumper” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

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 Dec 4, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q15847293. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1953 and 1972.

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.
