Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Vlastislav Mareček” as czech soccer player and soccer coach (1966-2007). 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—1966, 2007, 2004, 2005—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1966-04-15. The account is most persuasive where Vlastislav, Mareček and Czech can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the people & ideas register because the source frames it as czech soccer player and soccer coach (1966-2007). Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Chronology provides the most reliable spine for this subject; interpretation should follow only after identities and dates are secure. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jan 31, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q353644. VIAF identifies the subject as 85326830. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1966, 2007, 2004 and 2005.

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.

How to read it
