Those errors...
Date | Section | Article | Notes | Resolved |
---|---|---|---|---|
18 November 2018 | OTD | The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County | The "first great success" doesn't seem to be referenced in the article. It says it was "immensely popular" but not much about being his "first". | Yes |
Caption | Leo J. Ryan or just Leo Ryan (per the blurb)? Be consistent. | Yes | ||
Jonestown | Lead is mildly confused, "a total of 918[1][2] people died in the settlement" followed almost immediately by "909 individuals died in Jonestown,[1] ", we probably shouldn't feature articles with such overt and immediate inconsistencies.
|
Not an error | ||
Flag of Uzbekistan | "the first post-Soviet state to " article states " first of the newly-independent republics in Central Asia to choose a new flag", not necessarily the same. | Yes | ||
DYK | British nuclear testing in the United States | No evidence in the article that these sub-critical tests "continue". The article mentions "continued", last one specified in 2006. | Yes | |
Tommy Lockhart | The grizzly was actually an ice-skating bear ("He had arena staff improvise skates to fit size 40 paws, with blades tied to its feet with ropes.") | Nope | ||
19 November 2018 | DYK | Fencepost limestone | "to build the Cathedral of the Plains..." well this isn't mentioned in the article at all. There is a caption for a building with the same image where it states "Basilica of St. Fidelis, Victoria. Parishioner farmers hauled 17 million pounds (7.7 million kg) of Fencepost limestone in horse-drawn wagons to build it.[23]" but no mention in the target article of "Cathedral of the Plains". | Yes! |
Udo Zimmermann | Tagged for more refs in the Operas, Publications and Recordings sections.
|
Yes | ||
Margaret Guilfoyle | The source doesn't say she was a "key" member of that group, just that she was part of "its membership". | Yes! | ||
OTD | Janowska concentration camp | Date doesn't appear to be cited. | ||
Prestige oil spill | That precise volume of oil is "estimated". | |||
Mikhail Kalinin | Where is DoB referenced? |
