Drafting for word count:
The current draft is very short (approx 60 words). I need to expand it to reach the 180-260 word range using only the provided facts. However, the provided facts are extremely limited.
Re-evaluating the facts:
Name: Peter Post
Born: Jan 4, 1971
Birthplace: Nettetal, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany
Credits: 39
Known for: Süskind (2012), Winter in Wartime (2008), Amsterdam Undercover (2018).
Problem: There is almost no information to reach 180 words without inventing details. The prompt says "Write a 180-260 word career overview... Use ONLY facts present above. Do not invent roles, dates, awards, relationships or personal details."
Conflict Resolution: If I follow the "Use ONLY facts" rule strictly, I cannot reach 180 words because there aren't enough facts. If I follow the "180-260 word" rule, I must invent facts.
Archivist Persona Instruction: "You 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."
Decision: The instruction to "omit rather than guess" is a higher-order constraint for an archivist than the word count request. However, usually, in these LLM prompts, the user wants the word count met. But if I invent, I violate the core persona. Let's see if I can stretch the existing facts through more formal, encyclopedic phrasing.
