en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Westmoreland
  • The date is wrong. Westmoreland became Army Chief of Staff on July 3, 1968, not July 7; and Frederick Van Deusen was killed on July 3, 1968, which is why the events were only hours apart.

  • Alan Brooke’s second marriage to Benita Lees was in 1929, not 1928.
  • Brooke did not take command of the Mobile Division in 1935; he commanded it in 1937–1938.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Rand
  • This is chronologically wrong: Remington Rand did not exist in 1924. The Noiseless deal was made by Remington/Remington Typewriter, while Remington Rand was formed later in 1927.
  • The strike did not end in summer 1940. A City of Middletown historical report says it ended in April 1937; later dates refer to the settlement's implementation, not the strike itself.
  • This is false: UNIVAC I systems were installed and used at customer sites, including the Census Bureau and General Electric, rather than being left at Remington Rand's facility.

  • James’s 1603 accession created a personal union of the crowns, not a single unified kingdom. England and Scotland remained separate kingdoms with separate institutions until the Acts of Union in 1707.
  • Broken Lance does not feature only three sons. Spencer Tracy’s character has four sons total: three older sons from his first marriage and a fourth son, Joe, by his second wife.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akihito
  • The country count is too low. The Imperial Household Agency says Akihito and Michiko made official visits to 28 countries after his enthronement, not 18.
  • This was not Akihito's first public appearance after abdication. Japanese news outlets reported that he and Michiko made their first public appearance on May 6, 2019, at a tennis court.
  • Japan did not solve Akihito's abdication by amending the Imperial Household Law. The Diet instead passed a special one-time law to allow his abdication.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omar_Bradley
  • Bradley’s term as the first Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff began on August 16, 1949, not August 19, 1949.
  • Bradley’s 1943 promotion was to the temporary rank of lieutenant general, not a brevet rank.

  • Japan’s invasion of Manchuria began after the Mukden Incident on September 18, 1931, not in the summer of 1931.
  • This sentence mixes up two different incidents: the 1937 Marco Polo Bridge clash near Beijing and the 1931 Mukden Incident in Manchuria.
  • November 24, 1971 was the ratification date, not the return date. Okinawa reverted to Japan when the agreement entered into force on May 15, 1972.
  • Japan did not build dedicated high-speed rail lines in 1957. The Tokaido Shinkansen—the first high-speed railway system—began construction in 1959 and opened in 1964.
  • The National Police Reserve was not established in July 1947. It was authorized in July 1950 and formally established in August 1950.

  • This is too broad: Spain is a counterexample. Spanish official sources say authors who died before December 7, 1987 remain protected for 80 years after death, and Edgar Rice Burroughs died in 1950.
  • This overstates what Dastar held. The case did not broadly invalidate trademarks on public-domain works; it held that Lanham Act §43(a) does not bar uncredited copying of an uncopyrighted work.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Angry_Birds_Movie
  • This domestic ranking is outdated. Current box-office charts place The Angry Birds Movie 11th among video-game films domestically, not 6th.

  • The film’s reported worldwide box office is about $71.26 million, not $63 million.
  • Major box-office trackers list about $35.0 million international and $71.26 million worldwide, not $25.5 million international and $62.8 million worldwide.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shining_Path
  • Artemio’s 2012 capture did not end the conflict with Shining Path. Peruvian authorities were still fighting Shining Path remnants in the VRAEM years later, including after deadly attacks in 2022–2023.
  • Contemporary reporting described Operation Olimpo as involving 752 police, not 752 military personnel. Official and press accounts say the raid was led by police units, with prosecutors and Army intelligence support.
  • Not all of those splinter groups were based in the VRAEM. Contemporary sources distinguish Shining Path remnants in the VRAE/VRAEM from a separate Huallaga-based faction under Artemio.
  • Crespo was not among the initial 2 December detainees. Contemporary reports say he was captured later, on Friday 4 December 2020, after the operation had already begun.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimiro_Montesinos#Vladi-videos
  • This sentence mixes up the election date with the inauguration date. Fujimori won the 1990 presidential runoff on June 10, 1990; July 28, 1990 was the date he took office.
  • This sentence compresses two separate events and gives the wrong sentence length. Montesinos pleaded guilty on January 29, 2024, but he was sentenced on January 31, 2024 to 19 years and 8 months, not 19 years.
  • This is outdated and now false. Peru's Supreme Court ruled in February 2026 that Montesinos remains imprisoned until September 30, 2037.

  • The Australian Marriage Law Postal Survey was held in 2017, not 2018. The federal same-sex marriage law was assented to on 8 December 2017.
  • This is chronologically wrong. Australia's federal same-sex marriage law was enacted in December 2017, and Dominic Perrottet was a New South Wales state MP, not a federal legislator, at the time.
  • This is misspelled. The militant group's name is Lashkar-e-Tayyiba, commonly also rendered Lashkar-e-Taiba.

  • 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.

  • The 1,000-car V-Edition Final Version was a Japan-only MR-S special edition. Toyota’s own UK farewell model was the TF300, limited to 300 cars.
  • Toyota did not have a U.S. 2007 MR2 model year. Toyota USA lists the third-generation MR2 as 2000–2005 only; the 2006 farewell editions were for Japan and the UK.

  • This understates the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s estimate by a wide margin. The Commission estimated that Shining Path was responsible for about 31,331 deaths, not 12,500.
  • Fujimori’s tongue cancer was not first diagnosed in 2024. Reputable reports show he had tongue cancer or a cancerous tongue lesion years earlier.
  • The Tarata bombing did not kill “over forty people.” Credible Peruvian sources report 25 deaths.
  • As of July 3, 2026, Keiko Fujimori had not yet been officially proclaimed president, and she had not taken office.
  • Multiple reliable obituaries and family statements identify four children, not five.
