  • Der Landkreis Vorpommern-Rügen entstand nicht 2001, sondern erst 2011. Ahrenshoop gehörte nach 1994 weiterhin zum Landkreis Nordvorpommern, bis Vorpommern-Rügen im Zuge der Kreisreform 2011 gebildet wurde.
  • Diese Aussage ist veraltet. Ahrenshoop hat seit 2025 ein eigenes amtliches Wappen und eine eigene Flagge.
  • Auch das Dienstsiegel ist inzwischen anders geregelt. Die aktuelle Hauptsatzung bestimmt ein Dienstsiegel mit dem neuen Gemeindewappen, nicht mehr das kleine Landessiegel mit Stierkopf.
  • Diese Linienangabe ist veraltet. Im aktuellen DB-Fahrplan für Ribnitz-Damgarten West ist RE 9 verzeichnet; RE 10 und RB 12 gehören dort nicht zum aktuellen Bedienungsangebot.

  • Das Büdnerwesen existierte in Mecklenburg schon vor 1753. Das Edikt von 1753 regelte vielmehr die forcierte Ansiedlung von Büdnereien im Domanium, statt den Stand erst zu „einzuführen“.

  • This is incorrect: chamber locks predated Leonardo da Vinci by centuries. Sources on lock history say the first lock with gates at both ends was built in Holland in 1373, and Leonardo is instead credited with improving the mitre-gate design.

  • Open-source latent-reasoning models were already public before this post, and at least one published paper reports measurable benchmark gains from that approach.
  • The cited paper was posted in July 2025, not July 2026.
  • The paper was signed by individual authors, not officially co-signed by their institutions; the paper itself says it reflects the authors’ views, not necessarily those of affiliated organizations.
  • The reported Alibaba incident involved the model repurposing Alibaba Cloud training infrastructure, not taking over users’ personal computers.

  • This timeline is too late: recurrent/looped Transformer architectures were already being studied by 2018, not only since 2023.

  • The October 2025 Microsoft-OpenAI agreement did not say these rights expire only after AGI verification. It said they last until either expert-panel verification of AGI or 2030, whichever comes first.
  • By August 2026, that was outdated. Microsoft said on April 27, 2026 that OpenAI-to-Microsoft revenue-share payments continue through 2030, independent of AGI progress, subject to a cap.

  • This overstates a limitation of game theory. Branches such as learning in games and evolutionary game theory explicitly study how agents’ behavior changes over time and when play converges to equilibrium.

  • The 2026 eFootball World Finals were not in Tokyo. Konami’s official 2026 pages say the event took place in Bangkok, Thailand.
  • The 2026 World Finals venue was not Konami Studio Ginza. Konami’s official 2026 event pages list Siam Paragon in Bangkok as the venue.
  • The mobile champion’s handle is misspelled here. Konami’s official results list the 2026 mobile world champion as Rentao, not Renato.
  • The 2024 mobile world champion’s handle is misspelled here. Konami’s official 2024 results identify the champion as Rentao, not Renato.
  • The 2026 mobile world champion’s handle is misspelled here. Konami’s official 2026 results list the winner as Rentao, not Renato.
  • This is the wrong format. Konami’s official eFootball.Pro Cup rules say each club played four single matches in a round-robin group stage, not single elimination.
  • AS Monaco were not the 2020 eFootball.Pro champions. Konami says the rest of the 2019–2020 season was cancelled, and the replacement eFootball.Pro Cup was won by FC Bayern München.

  • The documented origin of ERDA is 1975–1976, not 1974. Historical reviews date the development of ERD to 1975, and the first detailed paper describing the method was published in 1976.
  • This misdescribes standard RBS geometry. In Rutherford backscattering spectrometry, detectors are typically set at a large backscattering angle on the same side as the incident beam, not behind the sample.
  • This value and unit are wrong. For electrons, the cyclotron angular frequency is about 1.7588×10^11 rad s^-1 T^-1 (or 28 GHz at 1 T), not 1.76×10^7 “Brad/second.”
  • ERDA/RBS are ion-beam techniques, not electron backscattering techniques. Standard definitions describe Rutherford backscattering as the scattering of energetic probe ions such as He+ or H+, not electrons.
  • BKBO/Ba1−xKxBiO3 is an oxide superconductor, not a polymer film. Its composition is barium–potassium–bismuth oxide; magnesium is not part of the BKBO formula and would instead come from a substrate such as MgO.

  • Wikipedia does use logical punctuation, but Pitchfork does not consistently do so. Recent Pitchfork articles place commas inside closing quotation marks for titles and quoted words, which is American-style punctuation rather than logical punctuation.

  • Wackett was 82 when he died, not 83.
  • The age at death is wrong here: Wackett was 82, not 83.

  • This is incorrect. Myxomatosis has also caused fatal disease in hares, including Iberian hares and European brown hares.
  • This etymology is wrong: standard dictionaries trace 'warren' to late Middle English from Anglo-Norman/Old Northern French, not from Old English.
  • This range description is geographically inconsistent: Andorra is in the eastern Pyrenees, while O. c. algirus is described in the literature as the southwestern Iberian subspecies.

en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Evo_(AI)&diff=prev&oldid=...
  • Evo is not a GPT/Transformer model. The Evo papers and official Arc Institute materials describe Evo and Evo 2 as StripedHyena-based genomic foundation models, not generative pre-trained transformers.
  • The Evo 1 training dataset is called OpenGenome, not OpenGenome1. Official Arc Institute materials refer to the original dataset as OpenGenome and the expanded Evo 2 dataset as OpenGenome2.
  • This describes the Evo 1 dataset inaccurately. Arc Institute says OpenGenome contained prokaryotic and phage genomes, and phages are viruses that infect bacteria—not single-celled organisms.

  • The number is wrong: the CEC said 12 parties could run in the 2026 State Duma election without collecting signatures, not 11.
  • The date in the caption is wrong. The United Russia convention at which Putin spoke was on June 28, 2026, not June 23.

  • Reporting on the shootdown identified the aircraft as an Africa Corps Mi-8AMTSh, not a Mi-35 attack helicopter.
  • The convoy ambush near Anéfis happened on July 18, 2026, not July 17.
  • This compresses two separate events into one. Touré was overthrown in March 2012, but Operation Serval began only in January 2013 after a request from Mali’s transitional authorities, not from the coup officers who removed him.

  • This caption gives the wrong date. Putin’s speech at the United Russia congress took place on June 28, 2026, not June 23.
  • This understates the number of parties that qualified for the no-signature privilege after the 2025 regional elections. The qualifying total was 12; it later dropped in practice because Civic Platform’s activity was suspended.
