Why this record matters
A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Yasno Pole”, the useful work is to connect “village in Maritsa municipality, Plovdiv oblast, Bulgaria” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.
Maps, plans, fabric surveys and administrative records can establish how the site’s name, extent and function changed over time. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jan 18, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2463552. Authority coordinates are 42.233, 24.939. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2020, 1080, 1887 and 1934.
A single description cannot reconcile every naming convention, rebuilding phase or administrative transfer associated with a place. 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.
