en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G._Gordon_Liddy
  • Liddy’s contempt conviction was not for refusing to testify to the Senate Watergate committee. It stemmed from his refusal to testify before a House Armed Services subcommittee.
  • This ISBN is wrong for *When I Was a Kid, This Was a Free Country*. Credible book listings identify the 2002 Regnery hardcover as ISBN 978-0-89526-175-5, not 978-0-312-05127-3.
  • This ISBN is wrong for *Fight Back: Tackling Terrorism, Liddy Style*. Macmillan and other bibliographic listings give different ISBNs for this title, such as 978-0-312-36438-0 (paperback) and 978-0-312-19945-6 (2006 St. Martin’s Press hardcover).

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Nepal
  • The table’s total is arithmetically wrong: the country figures shown add up to about 4,560.5 thousand, not 2,355 thousand.
  • Nepal’s official national population census in that period was the 2001 census, not a 2000 census.
  • The date is off by one day: Nepal’s restored House of Representatives declared the country secular on 18 May 2006, not 19 May 2006.
  • This is wrong on both timing and substance: Nepal’s new constitution was promulgated on 20 September 2015, and UNHCR says the major citizenship drive issued about 2.6 million certificates in 2007—not 4 million Indian immigrants in 2008.

  • 这里把普通蒙特卡罗积分说成“确定性抽样”不对。普通（plain/crude）蒙特卡罗积分本质上是随机抽样；“确定性”的对应物通常指拟蒙特卡罗（quasi-Monte Carlo）。
  • 把蒙特卡罗积分的“正确性”归因于中心极限定理不准确。其收敛正确性来自大数定律；中心极限定理主要用于描述误差的近似分布和置信区间。
  • 把普通蒙特卡罗积分的误差说成“只与样本数 m 有关”过于绝对。误差的衰减率是 1/√m，但误差大小还取决于被积函数的方差（以及由此带来的维度/问题结构影响）。

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bahamas
  • This is not an official census count. The Bahamas’ latest official census was in 2022, and the Bahamas National Statistical Institute reported 398,165 people.
  • The Bahamas did not have a 2018 census. The official census years listed by the Bahamas National Statistical Institute go from 2010 to 2022, and the 2022 official count was 398,165.
  • That is not what the Panama Papers showed. ICIJ reported that more than 50% of Panama Papers offshore entities were in the British Virgin Islands, and said the Bahamas was only Mossack Fonseca’s third-busiest jurisdiction.
  • Those trillion-dollar figures are global offshore-wealth estimates, not Bahamas-specific totals. IMF and OECD sources put The Bahamas’ offshore financial assets in the hundreds of billions, not tens of trillions.
  • Yellow elder is not endemic to The Bahamas. Authoritative plant databases list it as native across much of the Caribbean and the tropical/subtropical Americas.

  • The opening-weekend gross is overstated. Box Office Mojo reports Sarah's Oil opened to $4,261,446, not $4.5 million.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kill_Bill:_The_Whole_Bloody_Affair
  • This date and event are wrong. Cannes’ official 2004 records list *Kill Bill Vol. 2* at the festival, while later reporting says *The Whole Bloody Affair* was first unveiled at Cannes in 2006.
  • This Cannes claim is incorrect. Official Cannes records for 2004 identify the festival screening as *Kill Bill Vol. 2*, not *The Whole Bloody Affair*; reporting on the combined cut places its Cannes unveiling in 2006.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Great_Awakening
  • The April 3, 2026 release date does not line up with the Declaration’s 250th anniversary. The Declaration was adopted on July 4, 1776, and the engrossed copy was signed beginning on August 2, 1776.
  • The article gives the wrong year for Franklin’s Convention prayer appeal. The Constitutional Convention took place in 1787, not 1789, and the film’s own production notes place that scene in 1787.

  • This is backwards: Kopernik Shores was incorporated in 1975, and that incorporation was later abolished by a judge in 1977.
  • Starbase’s official city pages list Lois Wallace, not Jenna Petrzelka, as the current second city commissioner.
  • The official Starbase staff page lists Cayetana Polanco, not Kent Myers, as city administrator.

  • Earthborne Rangers was not out of print when this article was published. The publisher’s site still promoted it with a “Buy Now” link, and the official Covenant store listed the Earthborne Core Set (Second Printing) for sale.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Silverman
  • The special is about Silverman’s father and stepmother dying nine days apart in 2023, not both of her parents; her mother Beth Ann O’Hara died in 2015.
  • This is the wrong Emmy category for Silverman’s 2008 short-form nomination. The Television Academy lists it as “Outstanding Special Class - Short-Format Live-Action Entertainment Programs.”
  • This artist credit is malformed. The 2019 single is credited to Harkin and Sarah Silverman, not “Frightened Rabbit Harkins and Sarah Silverman.”

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_Jane_Grey
  • John Dudley was not "Protector". During Edward VI's minority he ruled as Lord President of the Council, while the title Lord Protector belonged to Edward Seymour, Duke of Somerset.
  • Henry Grey, Duke of Suffolk, was not sentenced to death at Jane's November 1553 trial. He was released and pardoned in July 1553, then later tried and condemned only after joining Wyatt's Rebellion in February 1554.
  • Thomas Wentworth was not a "Lord Viceroy of Suffolk," and the date given for his defection is off. He was a commissioner exercising the functions of lord lieutenant of Norfolk and Suffolk, and a standard biographical source says he declared for Mary on 17 July 1553.

  • Florida did not enact this bill in July 2025. HB 903 was approved on May 22, 2025; July 1, 2025 was the law’s effective date.
  • Florida’s 2025 statute does not specifically authorize beheading. It keeps lethal injection and elective electrocution, and adds only a contingent fallback to a method “not deemed unconstitutional.”
  • This is not the wording of the Florida statute. The law says executions may proceed by “a method not deemed unconstitutional” under certain contingencies.

  • In 1613, Kunshan was in South Zhili (Nanzhili), not a province called Jiangnan; "Jiangnan" was the Qing-era name adopted later.
  • The chronology is backwards: Gu passed the exam in 1626, while his adoptive grandfather died later, in 1641.
