en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Maher
- This is outdated. The Television Academy now lists Bill Maher as having won an Emmy, so he is not a winless nominee.
- The nomination count is out of date. The Television Academy currently lists Bill Maher with 42 Primetime Emmy nominations, not 41.
- The year/category result is wrong. In the Television Academy's 2015 listing, Vice was a nominee, not the winner; the 2014 listing shows Vice as the winner in that category.
- Executive Order 13769 applied to seven countries, not five. The White House archive lists Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen.
- This nomination count is outdated. The Television Academy currently lists Bill Maher with 42 Primetime Emmy nominations, not 41.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_cup
- This definition is too broad: some major World Cups do not award the title of world champion. In alpine skiing, for example, the World Cup awards the title "Winner of the FIS World Cup," while the separate World Ski Championships crown the world champion.
- In season-long World Cups, cumulative points do not necessarily determine a world champion. In alpine skiing, FIS says the season winner is the "Winner of the FIS World Cup," while world champions are decided at the separate World Ski Championships.

- The January 2026 Trump rules cited here were not blanket domestic chip controls. They were chiefly export-license conditions for certain advanced chips going from the U.S. to China/Macau, plus a tariff on certain imports, so saying the administration had already broadly "enacted all of them" overstates what the rules actually did.
- The U.S. did not impose a blanket ban on Claude Fable for everyone. Anthropic says the government export-control order required restricting access by foreign nationals, and Anthropic then suspended access for all users only because it could not verify nationality in real time.
