Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Stefanie Böhler” as cross-country skier. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

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—1981, 1999, 2018, 2006—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1981-02-27. The account is most persuasive where Stefanie, Böhler and cross-country can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as cross-country skier. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 23, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q61727. VIAF identifies the subject as 8964160546936810240007. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1981, 1999, 2018 and 2006.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. 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
