en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Hall
- This mixes up the couple’s civil wedding and their church celebration. Hall and Murdoch married in a civil ceremony on March 4, 2016; St Bride’s hosted a service of prayers and thanksgiving on March 5, 2016.
- The attendance figure is wrong. Contemporary reports of Hall’s record night say she performed before 9,214 theatregoers, not 9,124.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spike_Lee
- This is incorrect: the Academy’s own Honorary Award records show earlier recipients who were much younger, including child actor Hayley Mills in 1960.
- The year is wrong. The Television Academy records Spike Lee’s nomination for 4 Little Girls as a 1998 nomination, not 1988.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/She%27s_Gotta_Have_It_(TV_series)
- This gets the timing wrong. Spike Lee said on January 19, 2017 that he would not use Michele’s song because she was going to perform at Trump’s inauguration, before the performance took place.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polisario_Front
- This is outdated. UN sources say the 1991 ceasefire broke down in November 2020, so it has not remained continuously in effect since 1991.
- This is outdated. Amnesty reported in September 2022 that Sultana Khaya had left her house after more than 18 months of house arrest, so she has not remained under continuous house arrest since November 2020.
- This is legally inaccurate. The UN's legal counsel said the 1975 Madrid Agreement did not transfer sovereignty over Western Sahara to Morocco or Mauritania.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Sahara
- The U.S. did not establish a temporary consulate in Dakhla in January 2021. It announced a virtual presence post in December 2020, and current State Department listings still show only Rabat and Casablanca as U.S. posts in Morocco.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahim_Ghali
- This mixes up two different offices. Ghali was elected President of the SADR and Secretary-General of the Polisario Front, not Secretary-General of the SADR.
- This again assigns the wrong institution to the secretary-general role. Ghali was re-elected President of the SADR and Secretary-General of the Polisario Front.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harald_V
- This overstates the constitutional consequence. Harald remaining unmarried could have ended his direct family line, but it would not automatically have ended Norway's monarchy.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kievan_Rus%27
- This date is wrong. The well-attested major Rus' attacks associated with Igor were in 941 and 944, not 960.
- This is incorrect: Batu did not go back to Mongolia for the succession. Scholarly sources say he remained in the Volga/southern Russian steppe and consolidated the Golden Horde there.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harald_Fairhair
- This sentence gives the islands to the wrong person. In the saga tradition, Ivar is killed, and Harald compensates Rögnvald—not Ivar—by granting him Orkney and Shetland.
- This misstates the genealogy in chapter 18. The chapter links Harald Fairhair to Sigurd Snake-in-the-Eye through Sigurd’s daughter Ragnhild, not to Sigurd Hart through Aslaug → Sigurd Snake-in-the-Eye → Ragnhild.
- The date is wrong. *Mount & Blade: Warband* came out in 2010, but the *Viking Conquest* expansion/DLC was released on December 11, 2014.
Wikipedia Jul 28, 2026 at 07:05 PM
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_Harald%27s_Saga
- This misspells the author of *Heimskringla*. The correct name is **Snorri Sturluson**, not “Snorri Sturlson.”
- The author’s surname is misspelled here. The correct form is **Snorri Sturluson**.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%93lafur_Darri_%C3%93lafsson
- This award entry appears to confuse Ólafur Darri Ólafsson with the different person Ólafur Jóhann Ólafsson. The 2024 Nordic Council Film Prize nomination for Touch was credited to director Baltasar Kormákur, screenwriter Ólafur Jóhann Ólafsson, and producers Agnes Johansen and Baltasar Kormákur—not to actor Ólafur Darri Ólafsson.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Bock
- Credible profiles say Sarah Bock saw Matilda on Broadway at age 8, not 12, and that experience inspired her to pursue acting.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Friedman
- This gets the years wrong. Succession won the SAG ensemble award in 2022 and 2024; the 2023 winner in that category was The White Lotus.
- This count is outdated. Official Broadway credits show Peter Friedman later appeared on Broadway in Job in 2024, so his total is more than 13.
- For Job's 2024 Broadway run, the venue's current name was the Hayes Theater, not the Helen Hayes Theatre.
Wikipedia Jul 28, 2026 at 06:08 PM
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
- This July 28 anniversary entry is wrong: German writer Martin Walser died on July 26, 2023, not July 28, 2023.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transylvania
- The commonly cited earliest attestation is 1075, not 1078.
- This is wrong because Banat was not united with Romania a few months before 1 December 1918; Romanian official accounts place Banat in the 1 December 1918 union alongside Transylvania, Crișana and Maramureș.
- Drobeta is not in Transylvania (nor in the article's broader Transylvania/Banat/Crișana/Maramureș scope); it is in Drobeta-Turnu Severin, Mehedinți County, in Oltenia.
- This overstates Joseph II's 1784 census: Habsburg-wide population censuses were already being carried out in the 1750s under Maria Theresa.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_B%C3%A1thory
- This sentence wrongly says Elizabeth Báthory was convicted. Reliable references say she was never formally tried, and proceedings against her ended without a verdict.
- This gives the wrong arrest date. Multiple sources place Thurzó's move against Báthory on December 29, 1610, not New Year's Eve (December 31).
Wikipedia Jul 28, 2026 at 05:57 PM
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vampire
- The year is wrong: David Dolphin's porphyria-vampire theory was publicized in 1985, not 1982.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluebeard
- The 1972 film starred Richard Burton, not “Richard J. Burton.”

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doug_Clark_(serial_killer)
- This overstates Clark's modus operandi: court records show only one of the six murder victims he was convicted of killing, Exxie Wilson, was decapitated.
- The date is off by one day. The California Supreme Court's summary of the case places both killings on June 23, 1980, not June 24.
- This is outdated. As of July 28, 2026, Epic Pictures lists *Sunset Strip Killers* as already available on demand, and its release notices gave July 14, 2026 as the streaming release date.
Wikipedia Jul 28, 2026 at 05:14 PM
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfie_Allen
- A credited TV appearance from 1988 predates *You Are Here*, so this was not his first documented screen role.
