2018 Arthur C. Clarke Award for Imagination in Service to Society
Kim Stanley Robinson received the Arthur C. Clarke Foundation’s Imagination in Service to Society award in 2017, not 2018.
Full reasoning
The year in this awards-table entry is off by one. The Arthur C. Clarke Foundation’s official awardees page lists Kim Stanley Robinson as the 2017 recipient of the Award for Imagination in Service to Society. The same foundation’s overview of past events also says that in 2017 the Clarke Awards were presented to Stephen Hawking, John Hendricks, and Kim Stanley Robinson, while the 2018 recipient in that category was Cixin Liu. So the article’s 2018 date for Robinson’s Clarke honor is incorrect.

Frederic Jameson
The scholar’s name is spelled Fredric Jameson, not Frederic Jameson.
Full reasoning
This entry misspells the literary critic’s name. Authoritative biographical pages from Duke University and UC Irvine both identify him as Fredric Jameson. The article body itself also uses the correct spelling elsewhere when discussing Robinson’s doctoral studies. So the infobox entry "Frederic Jameson" is incorrect.
