Corrections

3 published items have been corrected, most recently on October 7, 2026. Each entry shows what the text said, what it says now, and why it changed.

What this shows

This page is a promise kept rather than a feature. The editorial policy says a corrected item is noted rather than quietly replaced, and this is where the noting happens, with the sentences shown in full rather than described.

It is short, and short is the honest outcome. A site that shows you a long list of corrections is not more trustworthy than one that shows a few; it has simply made more mistakes. What matters is that the list exists, that the entries are complete, and that the fix and the record are written by the same process, so nothing can be quietly dropped.

How corrections work here

Every figure on this site traces back to a named public dataset, so an error is checkable rather than a matter of opinion. When one is found, the item is corrected and the change is recorded on this page with its date and reason. Items are otherwise immutable: a later revision of an official dataset never silently rewrites something already published, because a history that can change underneath you is not a history.

Where the error is in the source rather than in the writing, the site follows the publisher’s revision and says so. Where it is in the site’s own text or calculations, it is fixed and listed here. Reports are welcome at the address on the imprint page.

The rules behind this page are in the editorial policy. Where each figure comes from is on the methodology page.
