  • This combines a later death toll with an outdated missing-person figure: by July 12, reports said 13 had died but the official number missing had fallen well below 23.

  • Gürtner became Bavarian justice minister on August 4, 1922, not November 8, 1922.

  • Geoffrey of Monmouth’s famous work was Historia Regum Britanniae (History of the Kings of Britain), not Historia Brittonum (History of the Britons). Historia Brittonum is a different, earlier work associated with Nennius.

  • This was not a Weimar-era tradition. Under the Weimar Constitution, the president appointed the chancellor, and the largest party often did not supply the chancellor.
  • Dachau was not the first concentration camp in Germany. It was the first regular Nazi concentration camp, while earlier camps had already been set up elsewhere in Germany in February and March 1933.
  • This overstates their combined strength in the 1930 election. The NSDAP and KPD together held 184 of 577 seats, about 31.9% of the Reichstag, not almost 40%.
  • The shooter was not “Albert Hochter.” Historical sources identify him as Albrecht “Ali” Höhler, a member of the Roter Frontkämpferbund.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elon_Musk
  • This is incorrect because Canadian law in 1971 did not automatically pass citizenship to a child born abroad to a married Canadian mother and foreign father.
  • The 'since 1971' date is incorrect: Canadian law in 1971 did not automatically make Musk a Canadian citizen at birth through his married Canadian mother.
  • This date confuses SpaceX's incorporation date with Elon Musk's CEO appointment date; official company materials list his appointment as CEO in May 2002.
  • Official SpaceX offering documents say the company was founded and incorporated on March 14, 2002, not in May 2002.

  • The Hans Christian Andersen Awards are not annual. IBBY states they are given every other year (biennially).
  • Museum sources say Andersen did not invent the woven Christmas heart. He made the oldest preserved known example, but its invention is not attributed to him.

  • This is too broad: PRC official documents do use the character “兆”. PRC legal metrology documents list 兆 as the SI prefix for 10^6, and other official documents use forms such as 兆赫 (MHz).

  • The building’s glass was reported at about half an inch thick, not 4 inches.
  • Sources describe the facade glass as clear, not gold-tinted; the gold-tinted element was interior Fiberglas curtains.
  • An official landmark report says nearly 100,000 people had visited by 1957, not by 1960; that also makes the stated average of 400 per month far too low.

  • 这句话把现代荷兰语说得太像德语和冰岛语了。现代荷兰语并没有像德语、冰岛语那样把四格作为重要而生产性的语法手段，格区别大体只残留在代词和少数古旧/固定表达里。
  • 这里把“变格”和“动词”混淆了。变格是名词、代词、形容词等的格变化范式；动词对应的是“变位/变位法（conjugation）”，不是“变格”。

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexus_RX
  • This overstates the first-generation RX's cargo capacity. Lexus says the 1999 RX 300 had up to 75 cubic feet of cargo space, not 130 cubic feet.
  • The RX 450h's 2GR-FXE is not the same engine used in the RX 350. Toyota lists the RX 350 with the 2GR-FE and the RX 450h hybrid with the 2GR-FXE.
  • The 2020 RX facelift did not replace the standard 8-inch screen with a 12.3-inch screen. Lexus said 2020 models kept a standard 8-inch touchscreen, with the 12.3-inch screen remaining optional.
  • This Canada sales figure is wrong. Lexus Canada sold 33,187 vehicles across all models in 2025, and industry year-end data lists Lexus RX sales at 10,766 in Canada.

  • Azad Hind was proclaimed in Singapore, not on the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The islands were only transferred nominally to Azad Hind later, in late 1943.
  • The names in this sentence are wrong: the agency was Domei, and the Japanese general's surname was Shidei.
  • Loganadan was appointed chief commissioner/governor of the islands, not “Governor General.”

  • This is an anachronism: ALTANA AG did not exist in 1954. ALTANA’s own corporate history says the present ALTANA AG was formed in 1977 as part of a Varta spin-off.
  • The euro conversion is wrong. Using the official fixed conversion rate for Deutsche Mark, DM 1.5 billion equals about €767 million, not €585 million.
  • This is outdated. VARTA’s own history says the Quandt family sold the microbattery/R&D business in 2007, and Montana Tech bought the VARTA AG holding company in 2011.
  • The family office does not say the Harald Quandt family itself is worth $17 billion. Its website says its affiliated financial service providers manage over €17 billion in assets overall, including for outside clients.

  • This sentence conflates the document’s rediscovery and its declassification. Reporting says the transcript resurfaced in 1981 when a private historian found it in an Army archive and sent it to Richard Helms, while the CIA copy now online is marked as approved for release in 2014.

  • Her birth name was Behrend, not Ritschel. Contemporary biographical reference works state she was born Johanna Maria Magdalena Behrend and only later became legally associated with the Ritschel name.
  • This was not her birth name. She was born Johanna Maria Magdalena Behrend and only later acquired the Ritschel/Rietschel name.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duncan_Haldane
  • Haldane did not remain at USC until 1987. Credible biographies place him at USC from 1981 to 1985, followed by Bell Labs from 1985 to 1987.
  • This promotion year is wrong. Authoritative biographies say Haldane was an assistant professor at USC from 1981 to 1985, not an associate professor there in 1981.
  • These UC San Diego dates are incorrect. Authoritative biographies place Haldane at UC San Diego from 1987 to 1990, not from July 1986 to February 1992.
  • This is mislabeled. In 2017 Haldane was elected as a foreign associate of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, not as a regular member.

  • The V-2 campaign was not carried out by the Wehrmacht alone. Authoritative histories say the Army/Wehrmacht and the Waffen-SS both launched V-2 rockets.
  • It was the fourth test vehicle, but the 3 October 1942 success was the third launch attempt, not the fourth flight.
