Editorial summary

The public source identifies “Astrid van Koert” as dutch rower. This brief keeps that definition visible, then builds a research path around Astrid, Koert and Dutch.

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—1970, 1996, 2020—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1970-07-07. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Astrid, Koert and Dutch providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Astrid van Koert”, the useful work is to connect “dutch rower” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

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 Jan 27, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q2659981. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1970, 1996 and 2020.

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.
