  • This stat line is internally impossible as written. “9投11中” would mean more makes than attempts, and 19 points also doesn’t match 9 made field goals with 3 made threes.

  • This stat line is wrong. If a player is 9/11 from the field with 3 made threes, he has scored at least 21 points from field goals alone, not 19; Fox Sports lists Morant's line in this game as 19 points on 8/10 shooting and 3/3 from three.

  • The date is off by a year: Turkey’s note proposing revision of the Straits regime was sent in April 1936, not April 1935.

  • This overstates Australia’s legal status. Queensland government and child-rights sources say corporal punishment remains lawful in some Australian non-government schools, so it has not been fully outlawed across Australia.
  • The article appears to date Gardiner v. Bygrave a decade late. Historical sources cite the case as 1889, not 1899.

  • For a full 2D conformal field theory, the symmetry algebra is not a single Virasoro algebra but two commuting copies of it: a left-moving and a right-moving sector.

  • Es incorrecto afirmar que el Gobierno no envió ayuda durante tres días tras la DANA de Valencia. La UME se desplegó el 29 de octubre de 2024 y realizó rescates esa misma tarde.

  • Katrina Leung was not convicted of espionage. She pleaded guilty to making false statements to the FBI and filing a false tax return.
  • Yanjun Xu was not China’s deputy minister of state security. DOJ identified him as a deputy division director in Jiangsu’s provincial state security bureau.
  • Candace Claiborne was arrested in late March 2017, not January 2017.
  • The Ashley Tellis case was announced in October 2025, not 2023.

  • This is incorrect: Google’s own Noto docs say the main Noto Serif family supports Latin, Cyrillic, and Greek—not just Latin.

  • Journeys was not this developer’s first iOS app. Apple’s App Store shows the same developer, 天 吴 (Tian Wu), had already released Spatialify for iPhone and iPad well before Journeys.

  • This categorical claim is incorrect. In both Roman law and later English common law, there were real legal systems in which a woman’s authority or legal identity did pass from her father to her husband.
  • This overstates unmarried women’s legal freedom. In Roman law, dependants under a paterfamilias could not own property at all, and women could not vote or hold office regardless of marital status.

  • The award year is wrong. VUD award listings place Moorhuhn Kart’s PC Gold Award in 2004, not 2001.
  • This is incorrect. Moorhuhn Remake on Nintendo Switch already offered a real-time 1-vs-1 duel mode in 2018, years before Moorhuhn Xtreme.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_mode
  • Protected-mode x86 was already being virtualized in software before VT-x/AMD-V. Hardware assist arrived later, but it was not required.
  • Ordinary segment manipulation is not itself a VM86 exception condition. In virtual 8086 mode, segment registers still use 8086-style address formation.

  • Current AMD64 implementations are no longer limited to 48-bit virtual addresses. AMD documentation for EPYC 9004 shows 57-bit virtual addressing.
  • Current AMD64 implementations are not limited to 48-bit physical addresses. AMD documents current EPYC 9004 processors as using 52-bit physical addressing.

  • This confuses IPC with older MIPS-style benchmark units. In IPC, the “instruction” is the processor’s actual retired machine instructions per clock cycle, not a VAX-based normalized unit.
  • This misdefines interrupt latency. It is the delay from an interrupt request to the start of the interrupt handler, while having a guaranteed or bounded worst case is a separate property of some systems.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_mode
  • UEFI on x86 is not always 64-bit long mode. Both 32-bit and 64-bit UEFI implementations exist, so UEFI firmware and loaders do not universally run in long mode.
  • Non-canonical addresses do not always raise a general-protection fault. Stack references with a non-canonical address raise a stack-segment fault (#SS), not #GP.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_mode
  • This is too broad: many 64-bit x86 operating systems boot via UEFI and are entered in 64-bit long mode, not real mode.

  • Secondary x86 cores do not each rerun the full firmware boot path. On multiprocessor x86 systems, one bootstrap processor runs the BIOS/UEFI boot flow while the other application processors are held in Wait-for-SIPI and only execute targeted startup code when the BSP wakes them.

  • Follow-up work from the Inception authors says this explanation was likely wrong: the auxiliary classifiers did not improve early convergence and instead acted mainly as regularizers.

  • This misstates Archimedes’ method for approximating π. Archimedes bounded π using the perimeters of inscribed and circumscribed polygons, not by measuring polygon areas.
