The source is extremely sparse. It lists her name, that she is known for acting, that she has 19 known credits, her gender is female, and her content score is 88.
It does not list specific movie titles, TV show titles, specific roles, birth dates, or locations.
Problem: The user wants a 180-260 word career overview, but the source only provides about 10-15 words worth of factual information.
Constraint Check: "Write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported by the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES. You never invent or guess... If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess."
If I strictly follow the instruction "Write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported by the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES," I cannot reach 180 words because there is no information to reach that length.
However, the prompt asks for a 180-260 word overview.
In professional archiving/instruction following, if the source is insufficient to meet the length requirement without violating the "no invention" rule, the "no invention" rule is the primary directive for an archivist.
Wait, let me re-read. Is there any other source? No.
The source says: "Known For: Acting", "Known Credits: 19", "Gender: Female", "Content Score: 88".
If I write a 180-word text based only on these facts, I will be repeating myself or using filler, which violates "neutral, encyclopedic prose."
Actually, looking at the prompt again: "Write a 180-260 word career overview... Use ONLY facts present above."
This is a conflict. I cannot write 180 words of unique, verifiable facts from a source that only contains about 5 facts.
If I write: "Catherine Lidstone is an actress. She has 19 known credits. Her content score is 88. She is female." -> That is about 20 words.
If I try to expand it to 180 words, I would have to invent details or use extreme fluff, which violates "Write original, neutral, encyclopedic prose" and "You never invent or guess...".

Decision: I must prioritize the "Use ONLY facts present above" and "You never invent or guess" instructions. I will provide as much information as possible from the source, but I cannot meet the word count requirement without violating the core instruction of being a meticulous archivist who only uses provided facts.

Wait, let me look closer at the source text.
"Catherine Lidstone — The Movie Database (TMDB)"
"Known For: Acting"
"Known Credits: 19"
"Gender: Female"
"Content Score: 88"

There is literally nothing else. No dates, no titles, no awards.
