Source [1]: Mike Beaver is an actor and writer. Known for acting. Known credits: 29. Gender: Male. Birthday: November 28, 1973. Place of birth: St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada.
Source [2]: Tony Dow (Anthony Lee Dow). American actor. Portrayed Wally Cleaver in Leave It to Beaver (1957-1963). Involved in "Leave It to Beaver, or Still the Beaver" (1985-1989) and Murder, She Wrote (1987).
Conflict Check: Source [2] is about Tony Dow, not Mike Beaver. I must not confuse the two. The user wants a career overview of Mike Beaver.
Name: Mike Beaver.

Birth Place: St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada.
Drafting Paragraph 1: Mike Beaver is an actor and writer. He was born on November 28, 1973, in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada.
Drafting Paragraph 2: In his professional career, Beaver is known for acting. He has 29 known credits.
Wait, the word count requirement is 180-260 words.
The provided information for Mike Beaver is extremely sparse.
Source [1] provides: Actor/writer, 29 credits, born Nov 28, 1973, St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada.
Source [2] is about Tony Dow. I cannot use any info from Source [2] for Mike Beaver because it is about a different person.
Problem: If I only use the facts about Mike Beaver, I cannot reach 180 words.
Instruction 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."
Constraint Conflict: The user wants 180-260 words, but the source material only provides about 30 words worth of facts about Mike Beaver.
Strategy: I must follow the "ONLY verifiable facts" rule above the word count rule, or try to expand the prose without adding new facts. However, expanding "He is an actor" into 180 words without adding info is impossible without being repetitive or using filler, which violates "encyclopedic prose."
Let's re-read: "Write a 180-260 word career overview of Mike Beaver (Acting)".
If I include Tony Dow's info, I am violating the "verifiable facts" and "Mike Beaver" subject instruction.
If I don't include Tony Dow's info, I can't hit the word count.
Wait, is there any way to interpret the sources differently?
