Reviewing against constraints:
Word count check: Currently very short (approx 70 words). I need to expand to reach the 180-260 range without inventing facts.
Problem: The sources are extremely sparse. I cannot invent details to hit the word count. I must stick to the facts. If I cannot reach 180 words without inventing facts, I have a conflict between the "ONLY verifiable facts" rule and the "180-260 word" rule.
Strategy: I will describe the information available in the sources as an archivist would. I will mention the sources' categorization of her work.
