Source-derived summary

Ulrich Sloma (born 7 November 1942) is a German field hockey player. He competed in the men's tournament at the 1968 Summer Olympics.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Ulrich Sloma” as german field hockey player. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA useful biographical orientation record, particularly for establishing names, roles and a first chronology. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1942, 1968—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1942-11-07. The account is most persuasive where Ulrich, Sloma and German can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the people & ideas register because the source frames it as german field hockey player. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Biographical claims are most persuasive when dates, appointments and relationships can be traced to records created close to the events described. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 13, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q69522928. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1942 and 1968.

Critical limits

Later biographies can compress uncertainty and repeat inherited reputations, so apparently settled claims may still require comparison. 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

Read biographical claims against dates, named institutions and the cited references. Distinguish a subject’s later reputation from evidence produced during their lifetime.
