  • The recognized death toll from the Hillsborough disaster is 97, not 96.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Witness_tampering
  • This is inaccurate because federal law specifically criminalizes bribery of witnesses in 18 U.S.C. § 201. Section 1510 is a narrower obstruction statute about bribery to block someone from giving information to a criminal investigator.

  • Dalglish's first-season double was a league-and-FA Cup double in 1985–86, not a Premier League double. The Premier League was not created until 1992.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oprichnina#Organization
  • Lazhechnikov’s play is usually titled Oprichnik, not Oprichniki. Authoritative opera and literary sources identify the drama in the singular.
  • Part II was completed in the 1940s but not released in 1946. It was banned and only released in 1958.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikolai_Nevrev
  • This is too late by at least several years. Authoritative museum and encyclopedia sources say Nevrev turned to historical painting in the 1870s, and the Great Russian Encyclopedia lists one of his historical paintings from 1877.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massacre_of_Novgorod
  • This is off by nearly a century. The Novgorod Republic ceased to exist when Muscovy annexed Novgorod in 1478, not after Ivan IV's 1570 massacre.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivan_Petrovich_Fyodorov-Chelyadnin
  • This date is too late. Scholarly and reference sources place Fyodorov-Chelyadnin in the rank of boyar by 1546 or, at the latest, 1547—not 1550.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pavel_Tretyakov
  • Tretyakov Gallery sources say his early Dutch acquisitions were 11 graphic sheets and 9 paintings, not a first purchase of 10 canvases.
  • The birth year is wrong. Tretyakov Gallery sources identify Sergei Mikhailovich Tretyakov as born in 1834, not 1824.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konstantin_Pobedonostsev
  • This is chronologically impossible: Alexander II had already been assassinated in March 1881. The April 29, 1881 manifesto was issued by Alexander III, while Pobedonostsev is described in reliable sources as its drafter or author.
  • This reverses what the May Laws actually said. The 1882 rules barred Jews from settling outside towns and townlets, so they were confined to towns/shtetls rather than banned from them.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexey_Bogolyubov
  • This sentence gives the wrong death date. Bogolyubov died in Paris on November 7, 1896, according to standard biographical and archival sources.
  • The comparison dates are off. The Tretyakov Gallery was already open by 1874 and open to the public by 1881, while the Russian Museum opened in 1898—so Saratov’s museum was not 7 years earlier than Tretyakov, and it was 13, not 15, years earlier than the Russian Museum.

  • This was not the first censored painting in the Russian Empire. Tretyakov's own official history notes that Vasily Perov's 1861 "Easter Procession in a Village" had already been banned by censors decades earlier.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivan_the_Terrible
  • This is chronologically wrong. Restrictions on peasant movement in Muscovy existed long before 1597: the Sudebnik of 1497 already limited moves to St. George’s Day, and broader 'forbidden years' were operating by the early 1580s.
  • The city was taken in 1563, not 1562. Authoritative reference works date Ivan IV’s Polotsk campaign to 1562–63, with the surrender of Polotsk on 15 February 1563.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Basil's_Cathedral
  • The current cathedral is not limited to nine chapels/churches. Official museum sources describe Saint Basil’s Cathedral as having 10 churches, because a tenth church was added in 1588 over Basil the Blessed’s grave.
  • This “always” claim is false. Official State Historical Museum pages themselves sometimes list Basil’s name first, e.g. “Храм Василия Блаженного (Покровский собор).”

  • This is chronologically wrong: PCR-based Olympic sex testing was introduced in the 1990s, not the 1970s.
  • The IOC did not officially mandate compulsory sex verification in 1966; the IOC's own mandatory programme began in 1968.
  • This reverses what happened: CAS did not deny Dutee Chand's appeal; it suspended the hyperandrogenism regulations.
  • The Xinjiang Papers were published in November 2019, more than two years before the Beijing 2022 opening ceremony, not 'some weeks before.'
