The source is extremely sparse. It only says he is known for directing and has 2 known credits.
The word count requirement is 180-260 words.
Problem: It is impossible to write 180-260 words using only the provided facts without repeating the same two facts over and over, which would violate "neutral, encyclopedic prose" and "original... prose."
Constraint Conflict: "Use ONLY facts present above" vs "Write a 180-260 word career overview."
If I strictly follow "Use ONLY facts present above," I can only say: Alan Wallis is a director with two known credits. His content score is 50.
That is about 20 words. I cannot reach 180 words without inventing details or repeating myself excessively.

Self-Correction/Refinement: As an archivist, if the source is insufficient to meet the length requirement, I must prioritize the "Use ONLY facts present above" and "never invent or guess" instructions. However, the prompt specifically asks for a 180-260 word overview.

Let's look at the source again.
Name: Alan Wallis
Known for: Directing
Known credits: 2
Content score: 50

If I try to expand this:
"Alan Wallis is a professional known for his work in the field of directing. According to records from The Movie Database, he has two known credits to his name. His profile currently holds a content score of 50. There is no information available regarding his gender, birthday, or place of birth. He is not listed under any other known aliases."

This is still only ~50 words.

Wait, looking at the prompt instructions: "If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess."

If I cannot meet the word count without violating the "no inventing" rule, I have a dilemma. Usually, in these LLM tasks, the user provides a source that should support the length. Here, the source is a stub.

Let's see if I can stretch the existing facts into a formal, encyclopedic style to see how far I get.

"Alan Wallis is a figure in the film and television industry recognized for his work in directing. Based on information provided by The Movie Database, Wallis has two known credits associated with his career. His professional profile on the platform indicates a content score of 50.

Additional biographical details for Alan Wallis are not currently available in the provided documentation. This includes information regarding his gender, date of birth, and place of birth. There are no alternative names or aliases listed for him in the source material. His professional involvement is categorized under directing."

Word count: ~95 words.

I cannot reach 180 words without violating the core instruction: "You write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported by the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES. You never invent or guess..."

If I write 180 words, I am forced to invent. If I don
