Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Politics of Brazil — The 1937 constitution was nicknamed 'Polaca' as a reference to the Polish April Constitution of 1935, which was also authoritarian; the claim that it was 'not a reference to a Polish constitution' is incorrect.

Politics of Canada — The claim that prisoners serving a sentence of two years or more cannot vote is outdated; the Supreme Court struck down that ban in 2019, so all prisoners now have the right to vote in federal elections.

Politics of Canada — The claim that the Governor General cannot vote when acting as head of state is inaccurate; the Governor General is not legally disenfranchised, though they do not vote in practice.

Politics of Egypt — The entry states that el-Sisi assumed office immediately after the 2013 coup, but he became president in June 2014, with Adly Mansour serving as interim president from July 2013 to June 2014.

Politics of Egypt — The entry implies that the 2011–12 parliament was dissolved after the 2013 coup and that new elections were simply held in 2015; in fact, the parliament was dissolved in June 2012, and the next elections were held in 2014–2015, not solely in 2015.
