Editorial reviewA useful biographical orientation record, particularly for establishing names, roles and a first chronology. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1970, 1979, 1982, 1986—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1970-06-03. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Kabiri, Israeli and actor providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Uri Kabiri”, the useful work is to connect “israeli actor and musician” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

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 Oct 11, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q7900529. VIAF identifies the subject as 159151002094330280009.

Critical limits

A concise life account rarely captures disputed attribution, private networks or the changing language used to describe a career. 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.
