Subject: Lil Wayne (Acting) - Wait, the prompt asks for a career overview of Lil Wayne (Acting), but the sources are almost entirely about his music career.
Source [1]: TMDB Bio. Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr. (born Sept 27, 1982) is an American rapper. Joined Cash Money Records at age nine. Part of duo The B.G.'z with B.G. Joined Hot Boys in 1997 (with Juvenile, B.G., and Turk). Hot Boys debuted with Get It How U Live! in 1997. Major success with Guerrilla Warfare in 1999. Released Platinum debut Tha Block Is Hot in 1999. Mention of Lights Out (2000) and 500 Degree.
Source [2]: Wikipedia link (no content provided other than structure).
Source [3]: Wikipedia (Czech). Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr. (born Sept 27, 1982, New Orleans, Louisiana) is an American rapper, singer, and founder of Young Money Entertainment.
Source [4]: ČSFD.cz. Music video "Love Me ft. Drake, Future" (2013). Rating 58% from 19 people.
Source [5]: Osobnosti.CZ. Tha Carter series includes Tha Carter II (2005) and Tha Carter III (2008), both appearing in the top thirty of the Billboard charts. Mentions "Rapper of the Year" from The New Yorker.
The prompt specifically asks for a "career overview of Lil Wayne (Acting)".
Looking at the sources:
Source [1] is from TMDB (The Movie Database) and labels him an "actor biography", but the text provided is purely about his music career (rapper, Cash Money Records, The B.G.'z, Hot Boys, albums).
Source [4] mentions a "hudební videoklip" (music video) for "Love Me ft. Drake, Future" (2013).
There is no information in the provided text regarding acting roles, filmography, television appearances, or specific acting credits.
If I write about his music career, I am deviating from the requested subject "Lil Wayne (Acting)". However, if I strictly follow "Use ONLY facts present above" and the prompt asks for an overview of his acting career, I have nothing to write about regarding acting, other than the fact that he is listed in a movie database.
Wait, the prompt says "Write a 180-260 word career overview of Lil Wayne (Acting)". If the sources don't contain acting info, I cannot fulfill the word count or the subject matter without violating the "do not invent" rule.
Let's re-read: "Write a 180-260 word career overview of Lil Wayne (Acting)".
Actually, the TMDB source [1] is titled "Lil Wayne actor biography", but the content is about his music.
If I write about his music career, I am providing the only available facts. The prompt might be a trick or a slight error in the user's instruction (asking for acting when the text is music).
