Wait, the source material is very sparse. If I only use the provided facts, I cannot reach 180 words without being extremely repetitive or "fluffy," but the instructions say "Write original, neutral, encyclopedic prose" and "Do not invent...". If the source material is insufficient to reach the word count naturally, I must try to structure it as densely as possible while adhering to the "verifiable facts" rule.
Let's look at the source again.
Source [1] says: "John C. Thomas is an American screenwriter based in California. With his brother Jim Thomas, he wrote and/or was substantially involved with the screenplays of numerous films, including Predator (1987), Predator 2 (1990), Executive Decision (1996), Wild Wild West (1999), and Behind Enemy Lines (2001), which spawned a franchise."
Source [1] also says: "Known Credits 21". "Also Known As John C. Thomas جون كلافن توماس".
Can I reach 180 words?
Let's try to be very thorough with the phrasing.
