Why this record matters
“Wilfried Haslauer” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Wilfried, Haslauer and Austrian provides the most credible route into that argument.
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 Dec 27, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q112285. VIAF identifies the subject as 65112719. The Library of Congress control number is n2005084422. 2 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1956, 2013, 2025 and 1977.
Public reputation and documentary evidence do not always develop together; absence from a summary is not evidence of historical absence. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
