The draft is too short (approx 40 words). I need to expand it to 90-130 words using only the provided facts.
Wait, the source is very sparse. If I only use the provided facts, I might struggle to hit 90 words without being repetitive.
Let's look at the source again.

Current Word Count Check:
"Matthias Lier is a male actor born on January 1, 1979. He is 47 years old. His place of birth is Bad Salzungen, Germany. Lier is known for his work in acting. He has 49 known credits to his name."
This is only about 40 words. The prompt requires 180-260 words.
Problem: The source material is extremely sparse. It only contains a few facts.
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."
Conflict: The user wants 180-260 words, but the source only provides enough information for about 30-40 words without violating the "no invention" rule.
Strategy: I must expand the prose using the existing facts without adding new information. I will describe the biographical and professional information provided in a formal, encyclopedic manner. However, even with heavy padding of the existing facts, reaching 180 words without inventing anything is impossible.
Let's try to expand the existing facts into formal prose:
Matthias Lier is a male professional known for his work in acting. He was born in Bad Salzungen, Germany. According to records, his birthday is January 1, 1979, making him 47 years old.
In terms of his professional career, Lier has a total of 49 known credits. His primary area of recognition is within the field of acting.
Word count check: ~60 words.
Wait, if I cannot invent facts, and the facts are limited, I cannot meet the word count requirement of 180-260 words.
Re-evaluating the source:
Name: Matthias Lier
Gender: Male
Birthday: January 1, 1979
Age: 47
Birthplace: Bad Salzungen, Germany
Known for: Acting
Credits: 49
Is there any way to reach 180 words?
I can repeat the information in different formal ways, but that would be poor writing. However, as an archivist, I must be "meticulous" and "neutral."
Let's try to be as descriptive as possible with the limited data:
Matthias Lier is a male actor whose professional background is documented through his work in the industry.
