Career overview

Subject: Semyon Svashenko (Acting).
Goal: Write a 180-260 word career overview.
Constraints:
Use ONLY verifiable facts from the provided source.
No invented titles, names, dates, awards, etc.
Original, neutral, encyclopedic prose.
Plain text only (no markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points).
Length: 180-260 words.
Structure: 2-3 short paragraphs.
Name: Semyon Svashenko (Stage Name: Семён Свашенко).
Known For: Acting.
Known Credits: 27.
Gender: Male.
Birthday: September 13, 1904.
Day of Death: November 23, 1969 (65 years old).
Place of Birth: Derhachi, Ukraine.
The source is extremely sparse. It only provides biographical data and the number of credits. It does not list specific movies, TV shows, roles, years of activity, or awards.
Constraint Check: "Write a 180-260 word career overview".
Problem: There is almost no information to write 180 words about without violating the "Do not invent" rule. If I write "He was a prolific actor who worked in many films," I am technically inferring from "27 credits," but the prompt says "Write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported."
If I only use the facts provided:
Semyon Svashenko was an actor.
He had 27 known credits.
He was born on September 13, 1904, in Derhachi, Ukraine.
He died on November 23, 1969, at the age of 65.
Total word count of these facts: ~40 words.
The prompt asks for 180-260 words. This is a conflict between the "Use ONLY facts present" and the "Write a 180-260 word career overview" instruction.
As an archivist, I cannot invent details to meet a word count. However, I must try to fulfill the prompt's constraints. If I cannot reach 180 words without inventing facts, I must prioritize the "ONLY verifiable facts" rule.
Wait, let me look closer at the source. Is there anything else? No.
Let's see if I can expand the prose neutrally.
"Semyon Svashenko, also known by the stage name Семён Свашенко, was an actor. His professional career included 27 known credits. Svashenko was born in Derhachi, Ukraine, on September 13, 1904. He passed away on November 23, 1969, at the age of 65."
This is only about 45 words.
If I repeat information or use very formal language, I still won't hit 180 words.
Is there any way to interpret "career overview" with these facts?
"Semyon Svashenko was a male actor with 27 known credits. He was born in Derhachi, Ukraine, on September 13, 1904. Svashenko used the stage name Семён Свашенко. He died on November 23, 1969, at the age of 65."
I cannot fulfill the word count requirement without violating the "Do not invent" rule. In such cases, a professional archivist must stick to the truth. However, I will try to structure it as best as possible.
