左启明
《左传》传统归属的作者通常写作“左丘明”,不是“左启明”。
Full reasoning
这里把《左传》传统上归属的作者名字写错了。标准写法是 左丘明(Zuo Qiuming),不是“左启明”。
可核对的来源都把这位人物写作 Zuo Qiuming / 左丘明,并说明《左传》传统上归于他名下。例如,Wikipedia 条目明确写道:“Zuo Qiuming … was a Chinese historian who was a contemporary of Confucius”,并说 《Zuo Zhuan》 traditionally attributed to him。中国哲学书电子化计划(CTP)的检索页也把 左丘明 作为标准人名词条展示,并给出《论语》中“左丘明耻之”的对应条目。
因此,这里不是学界分歧问题,而是人名写错了:文中所指的应是 左丘明。

周游王
公元前771年被杀、导致西周终结的君主是“周幽王”,不是“周游王”。
Full reasoning
这里的周王名号写错了。公元前771年在犬戎之乱中被杀、被视为西周末主的,是 周幽王(King You of Zhou,周幽王),不是“周游王”。
可核对来源把这位君主都写作 King You of Zhou / 周幽王。Wikipedia 条目明确列出其谥号为 King You (幽王),并说明他是 the last from the Western Zhou dynasty。对骊山烽火传说的介绍页也明确写道:“In 771 BCE, King You of Zhou was slain by nomadic tribesmen.”
因此,这里不是译名并存,而是把 幽王 误写成了 游王。

石阶层
这里应是“士阶层”(shi class),不是“石阶层”。“士”是先秦中国的重要社会阶层,“石”则把概念写错了。
Full reasoning
这里把先秦社会中的 士(shì)阶层写成了“石阶层”。这会把一个真实存在的历史社会类别写成不存在的“stone class”。
关于孔子的社会出身,来源明确指出他与 士 阶层有关。Wikipedia 的孔子条目写道:“Confucius was born into the class of shi (士)”。加州大学圣地亚哥分校页面转引杨庆堃《中国社会结构》时,也直接把这一类写作 “The Shì (Scholars)”,并在摘要中说 “Confucius and his great disciples were founders of the shì class.”
所以,文中这里的正确写法应是 士阶层,不是“石阶层”。

我们的主公与齐王会面
这里应是“齐公”而不是“齐王”。孔子参与夹谷之会时,齐国君主是齐景公;齐国君主到更晚的战国时期才称王。
Full reasoning
这段把孔子参与的夹谷之会对象写成了“齐王”,但当时齐国的君主是 齐景公,头衔是 公(duke),不是王。
关于这次会盟,孔子文化机构页面明确写道:“In ... 500 BC, Duke Jing of Qi state invited Duke Ding of Lu state to Jiagu”。而齐景公的条目也明确说明他是 “Duke Jing of Qi ... ruler of the Qi state from 547 to 490 BC.” 换言之,在孔子参与此事的公元前500年前后,齐国的在位者是 齐景公。
因此,文中这里把春秋时期齐国君主写成“王”是错误的;正确说法应是 齐景公,或至少 齐公。
