en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dune_(franchise)#Butlerian_Jihad
  • Sands of Dune was released a month earlier than this says. Macmillan lists the book's publication date as June 28, 2022, not July 28, 2022.
  • This short story was not released in 2008. Official and catalog sources list "Wedding Silk" as a 2011 publication.
  • This misstates the book's title. Abrams published it as "DUNE: The Graphic Novel, Book 1: Dune," not "Dune: The Comic Novel, Book 1."
  • This count is outdated. The page itself names five earlier games, and official sources confirm later releases of Dune: Spice Wars (2023) and Dune: Awakening (2025), bringing the total to at least seven.

  • The 2,778-researcher survey did not report a majority expecting AGI by 2040. Its aggregate forecast put a 50% chance of unaided machines outperforming humans at every task by 2047, not 2040.
  • "Intelligent Machinery, A Heretical Theory" was a lecture/talk, not an article. The Turing Digital Archive describes it as a lecture given to the '51 Society at Manchester.

  • NgAgo并不是“世界上第二种”基因编辑方法。早在2016年前,ZFN、TALEN和CRISPR/Cas9等多种基因编辑平台就已广泛存在。
  • 这项发现当时实际上已经形成正式论文并发表于《Nucleic Acids Research》。说它“还达不到正式一篇论文发表的完成度”与已发表的论文记录相矛盾。

  • Stanford’s own materials say SAIL was founded in 1963, not 1962.
  • ELIZA was created to study natural-language communication, not as an “experimental emotional tool.”
  • McCarthy coined the term in 1955, in the Dartmouth proposal for the 1956 summer project.
  • Google’s 2024 environmental report says the near-50% increase was for 2023 emissions relative to 2019, not from 2019 to 2024.

  • This was not Navarrette's first role overall. Credible filmographies say she first acted in the 2018 short film Cross Words Together; Denton's Death Date was her first series role.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obsession_(2025_film)
  • SIFF’s official 2026 awards announcement does not list a “Seattle Film Critics Society Feature Film Award” for Obsession. It lists the honor as the “2026 SIFF Seattle Critics Award,” presented to *Obsession* itself.
  • For this SIFF critics award, the official recipient was *Obsession*, not Curry Barker individually. SIFF’s awards announcement says the 2026 SIFF Seattle Critics Award went to “Obsession, directed by Curry Barker.”

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Odyssey_(2026_film)
  • These box-office totals do not match the stated date. Major trackers show The Odyssey had about $181.7 million domestic through July 22; it did not reach about $199.4 million domestic until July 23.
  • This domestic-opening number is an estimate, not the final reported total. Major box-office trackers list The Odyssey’s opening weekend at about $123.5 million, not $124.5 million.
  • The $190.9 million figure is wrong for a domestic opening-weekend comparison. The Dark Knight Rises opened domestically to about $160.9 million, not $190.9 million.
  • This figure is wrong in the context of domestic opening-weekend comparisons. Oppenheimer opened domestically to about $82.5 million, not $180 million.
  • The international opening figure is wrong. Universal and Box Office Mojo report an international debut of about $140.3 million, not $130.6 million.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Days_Gone
  • The Windows DLC’s official name is 'Broken Road DLC' (singular), not 'Broken Roads'.
  • Push Square’s review score for Days Gone was 7/10, not 8.1/10. The 8.1 figure on Push Square is the game’s site rating, not its review score.

  • The comparison is not to scale: official sources put Meta’s Richland Parish campus at 2,250 acres (about 9.1 km²), while Paris covers about 105 km².

  • Shuyan Zhou’s official bio says she has been at Duke since August 2025; before that she was a Research Scientist at Meta, not Ruslan Salakhutdinov’s postdoc.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beheading_of_John_the_Baptist
  • This misstates what the Synoptic Gospels say. Matthew 14:3 and Mark 6:17 identify Herodias as the wife of Herod's brother Philip, not 'Herod II.'
  • The artist's name is misspelled here. The standard name is Cesare da Sesto, not 'Casare da Sesta.'
  • September 11 is the Old-Calendar/Gregorian-date observance of the Beheading feast, not an Orthodox 'Translation of Relic' feast for John the Baptist.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herod_Antipas
  • Philo's account places Pilate's shields in Herod's palace in Jerusalem, not in the Antonia.
  • The film *Journey to Bethlehem* features Herod’s son Antipater, not Herod Antipas.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herodias
  • This reverses the order of events. Josephus says Herod had already removed Herod II from the succession before Antipater was executed.
  • Josephus says Archelaus's former wife was named Mariamne, not Herodias. Standard reference works identify Archelaus's first wife as Mariamne, possibly Mariamne III.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judaea_(Roman_province)
  • This office label is wrong for Gargilius Antiquus. Evidence identifies him as a governor/legatus Augusti pro praetore, not an equestrian prefect.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herod_the_Great
  • Josephus does not say Herod descended from Eleazar Maccabeus or the Hasmoneans. In Josephus, Herod’s paternal line is Idumaean, and the "half-Jew" remark refers to his Idumaean background, not Hasmonean ancestry.
  • Those dates are wrong. Herod’s war against Antigonus began after Antigonus seized Jerusalem in 40 BCE and ended with Herod’s capture of Jerusalem in 37 BCE.
  • Archelaus did not receive a tetrarchy of Judea. He was made ethnarch over Judea, Samaria, and Idumea; the tetrarchies went to Antipas and Philip.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pharisees
  • This sentence conflates John Hyrcanus with earlier Hasmonean rulers. John Hyrcanus succeeded Simon around 135/134 BCE; 152 BCE refers to Jonathan’s appointment as high priest, not Hyrcanus’s rise to power.
  • Josephus says the officiating priests were killed by the Roman attackers, not by Pharisees. This sentence misidentifies who carried out the killings during Pompey’s capture of the Temple.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus_predicts_his_betrayal
  • The count is wrong: the betrayal prediction appears in four canonical Gospel passages, not three.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judas_Iscariot
  • Acts 1:18 does not say Judas fell off a cliff. The verse says he "fell headlong" and burst open, but it does not mention any cliff.
  • The surviving Coptic manuscript was not from 200 AD. National Geographic reported that the codex dates to the third or fourth century AD, while the original Greek text is thought to be earlier.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neso_(moon)
  • This is incorrect because Proteus, not Nereid, is Neptune’s second-largest moon. NASA describes Nereid as Neptune’s third-largest moon and notes that Proteus is larger than Nereid.

  • Official IMU sources list Yu Deng, John Pardon, and Jacob Tsimerman as 2026 Fields Medal recipients; Hong Wang is listed by the IMU as a 2026 New Horizons in Mathematics Prize recipient instead.
