- 这句把伊朗说成已经发生了“彻底而完全的政权更迭”，但当日多家权威报道都显示伊朗政权仍在运作、并未垮台。4月7日时，美伊仍在间接沟通，美国情报评估也称伊朗政权并无近期崩溃风险。

- The New Yorker says the 200+ pages were a broader collection of documents related to Dario Amodei, not just his private notes alone.
- The article was based in part on Amodei's notes, but the 200+ pages were a broader set of documents, not 200+ pages of private notes alone.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chopsticks
- This is an anachronism. Sima Qian could discuss the Xia dynasty, but he could not have written about the 'Erlitou culture,' which is a modern archaeological term for a site first identified in 1959.
- This misattributes the source. The chopsticks passage is in the Book of Rites (Liji), a later anthology of ritual texts, and the relevant line in Qu Li I is not presented there as a quotation by Confucius.

zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Signpost
- 《The Signpost》官方页面写明该报“currently published twice a month”，并非月报。
- 官方《The Signpost》历史页写的是 2017 年 3、4、5 月没有出刊，而不是 4、5、6 月。
- 官方《The Signpost》页面列出的主编任期显示，迈克尔·斯诺只担任到 2005 年 8 月，不是一直当编辑到 2008 年 2 月。

zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikifunctions
- Wikifunctions并不是在2020年7月2日成立的。维基媒体官方页面把Wikifunctions列为“launched in 2023”，并给出时间线：2022年8月上线Beta，2023年7月上线正式生产站点。
- 把Wikifunctions标成“百科全书”不准确。维基媒体官方将其描述为可协作编辑的“free library of functions”，即函数/代码函数库，而不是百科全书。
- 董事会批准时间不是2020年7月。维基媒体官方资料显示，Abstract Wikipedia是在2020年5月获董事会批准，2020年7月是项目公开宣布和开发开始的时间。

- This is outdated: The Signpost is not currently monthly. Its official About page says it is published twice a month, and the 2026 archive shows multiple issues in January and March 2026.
- This is no longer correct. The Signpost's official About page says it is published twice a month, and its recent archives show multiple issues in single months.

simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Jobs
- Steve Jobs’s reported cause of death was not pancreatitis related to type 1 diabetes. His death certificate said he died of respiratory arrest caused by a metastatic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor.
- Jobs’s death certificate did not list pancreatitis or type 1 diabetes as the cause of death. It said he died at home in Palo Alto from respiratory arrest caused by a metastatic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor.
- Jobs was famously paid a $1 annual salary at Apple, not $1 million per year. Apple’s SEC filing says he had received $1 a year since rejoining the company in 1997.
- This cause-of-death entry is inaccurate. Jobs’s death certificate said he died of respiratory arrest caused by a metastatic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, not cardiac arrest related to type 1 diabetes.

zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/WikiTribune
- 2017年4月25日是WikiTribune宣布与众筹启动的日期，不是网站正式上线日期。官方页面在2017年4月26日仍显示“28 DAYS TO GO”，而官方10月文章还在说网站仍在“preparing for launch”。
- 把WikiTribune写成“商业性质：否”不准确。维基媒体基金会明确把它称为“for-profit collaborative news platform”（营利性协作新闻平台）。
- 把当前网站类型写成“新闻维基”已经过时。维基媒体基金会2019年称该项目已被重启为WT:Social，而WikiTribune官网现已直接跳转到Trust Café。
- 这句描述的状态已经不对。官方资料显示WikiTribune后来已重启为面向公众的WT:Social，而官网现在还会跳转到该公开站点/其后继Trust Café。
