en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erich_Priebke
  • This misstates Priebke’s early service. He entered the Gestapo in December 1936 and joined the SS in 1937; the source biography identifies his formation as the Gestapo/Sicherheitsdienst, not the Waffen-SS.
  • Priebke played a central role in the massacre, but he did not command the responsible unit. Multiple historical sources identify Herbert Kappler as the commander and Priebke as his deputy or subordinate.
  • The extradition decision was not made in 1996. Argentina’s Supreme Court ruled in favor of extradition in November 1995, and Priebke was flown to Italy later that same month.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Williamson_(bishop)
  • The cited phrase is misattributed to Richard Williamson. Reporting on the alleged Viganò re-consecration and Viganò’s own December 2023 statement attribute this language to Carlo Maria Viganò, not to Williamson.

  • Müller’s 2017 letter did not require a “1998 profession of faith.” It required adherence to the newer Professio fidei dating from 1988 (published in 1989); 1998 refers to later related documents such as Ad tuendam fidem and its doctrinal commentary.
  • The 2 July 2026 decree did not excommunicate the SSPX “as an entire order.” The decree named six individuals, while the accompanying note addressed sacred ministers and formally adhering laity.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Goldade
  • This birthdate conflicts with the SSPX’s own May 26, 2026 biography, which says Goldade was 45 years old on that date. A person born on February 28, 1980 would already have been 46 by then.

  • The July 2, 2026 Vatican action did not excommunicate the SSPX as a corporate entity. It applied to the fraternity’s sacred ministers and to lay faithful only if they formally adhere under specific conditions.
  • The excommunications were remitted in 2009, not 2007. The official decree is dated 21 January 2009.
  • The date for confessions is wrong. Pope Francis granted SSPX priests faculties for valid confessions in 2016; the marriage provisions came in 2017.
  • This understates the number of SSPX seminaries in 2021. SSPX sources from 2021 mention the seminary in Goulburn, Australia, meaning there were at least six, not five.

  • The Vatican did not say all SSPX lay followers are excommunicated. Its 2026 note applies excommunication only to laypeople who formally adhere under specific conditions.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_%C3%89c%C3%B4ne_consecrations
  • The Vatican’s July 2, 2026 decree did not excommunicate all SSPX priests or all adherent laity. It named only six bishops and warned clerics and laity that adherence to the schism would incur excommunication.
  • The July 2, 2026 Vatican decree named six bishops, not 750 priests or all adherent laity. It warned clerics and lay faithful not to adhere to the schism, but did not formally excommunicate them en masse in that decree.
  • This penalty is no longer in canon 1382. In the current Code of Canon Law, unauthorized episcopal consecration is punished under canon 1387.

  • Popular Force did not control Peru’s Congress for a decade. Its 2016 majority ended well before 2026, and later congresses were far more fragmented.

  • Firestarter was not an "ipconfig tool." It was a Linux graphical frontend for configuring and monitoring firewall rules, though it was indeed abandoned after its 2005 1.0.3 release.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klaus_Schwab
  • This sentence compresses Schwab’s ETH degree and doctorate into 1961, but official records show he received his ETH engineering diploma in 1962 and his ETH doctorate later, in 1966; the dissertation itself is dated 1965.
  • The publication year here is wrong. Sources for this title place its release in 2026, not 2025.
  • This gets Buthelezi’s office wrong. In 1992 he was Chief Minister of KwaZulu, not KwaZulu-Natal, which only came into being in 1994.
  • Mandela’s ANC title is misstated here. By 1992 he was President of the ANC, not its chairman.
  • This is historically wrong. Mandela had already begun traveling abroad in 1990, shortly after his release from prison.
  • This misidentifies the crisis that brought Greece and Turkey to the brink of war in 1987. The immediate trigger was the Aegean dispute, especially oil exploration rights, not Cyprus alone.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Reset
  • This misnames the organization. The Great Reset was launched by the World Economic Forum (WEF), not the WEC.
  • John Kerry was not Senate-confirmed to this envoy role. He was appointed and sworn in on January 20, 2021.
  • The Great Reset launch was in June 2020, not May 2020.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Economic_Forum
  • This is outdated. The World Economic Forum’s current President and CEO is Alois Zwinggi, not a vacant position.
  • The Forum’s official site lists offices in New York, San Francisco, Beijing and Tokyo — not Seoul.
  • This sentence conflates all government leaders with heads of state and government. Official WEF figures say the meeting had over 350 governmental leaders, but only about 50–60 heads of state and government.
  • This leadership roster is outdated. The WEF’s current leadership page shows Alois Zwinggi as President and CEO and lists a different set of current executives.
  • Larry Fink is not the Forum’s sole chairman. The WEF says it is chaired by co-chairs Larry Fink and André Hoffmann.

  • This misstates the sentence. Contemporary/legal accounts describe Seal as receiving a probationary sentence with six months in a halfway house as a condition—not a six-month probation term.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jorge_Ochoa
  • This date is wrong. Spanish courts had already given Colombia preference in March 1986, and Ochoa was actually extradited on July 13, 1986.
  • FEDEGÁN is not Antioquia's livestock federation. It is the national Colombian cattle federation.
  • Forbes did not estimate Jorge Ochoa alone at nearly $3 billion. Forbes said the Ochoa brothers together shared more than $2 billion.

  • This is outdated. Oregon reversed Measure 110’s decriminalization, and possession of small amounts of controlled substances was recriminalized effective September 1, 2024.
  • This is outdated. UNODC now reports that Myanmar is the world’s largest opium producer, while Afghanistan’s opium poppy cultivation fell to about 10,200 hectares in 2025, not 224,000 hectares.
  • Sydney’s facility is a supervised injecting centre, not a legal diamorphine-prescription centre. NSW says clients inject their own pre-obtained drugs there; the clinic does not provide drugs.
