Current Word Count Check:
"Nils Eklund is an actor who was born on January 17, 1927, in Bromma, Stockholm, Stockholms län, Sweden. He is also known by the name Neal Lund. In his professional career, Eklund is recognized for his work in acting. He has a total of 48 known credits."
Word count: ~45 words.
Problem: The prompt requires 180-260 words. The source material is extremely sparse.
Constraint Conflict: I must write 180-260 words, but I can ONLY use verifiable facts from the source. If I expand, I will violate the "never invent or guess" rule.
Strategy: I must expand the prose using neutral, encyclopedic phrasing of the existing facts without adding new information. However, with only about 30-40 words of actual data, reaching 180 words without inventing details is mathematically impossible while remaining "meticulous" and "verifiable."
Wait, let me re-read the source.

Word count check: ~95 words. Still far below 180.
Self-Correction: If the prompt demands 180-260 words but the source only provides ~35 words of data, and I am strictly forbidden from inventing anything, I cannot meet the word count requirement without violating the primary directive of "ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported."
