Why this record matters
A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Yao Ben”, the useful work is to connect “chinese association football player” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.
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 Mar 8, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q108455990. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1997, 2021, 2022 and 2025.
Public reputation and documentary evidence do not always develop together; absence from a summary is not evidence of historical absence. 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.
