Drafting for word count:
The current draft is very short. I need to expand using only the provided facts to reach the 180-260 word range. However, the sources are extremely sparse. I cannot invent details.
Re-evaluating the sources:
Source 1: Name, Birthday, Death, Age at death, Place of birth, Known for (Acting), Known credits (136), Also known as (Phil Pine).
Source 2: The Outer Limits episode ("The Hundred Days of the Dragon"), Perry Mason episode (1964, "The Case of the Wednesday Woman", character Phillip Stewart).
Problem: The provided sources contain very little information. To reach 180 words without inventing facts is nearly impossible if I strictly follow "Write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported".
Let's try to expand the prose style to be more "archival" and "encyclopedic" while staying within the facts.
