Scientists & Mathematicians Codexery — Data & Quality

We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.

Last full accuracy audit: 2026-08-27 · 10 entries checked · 4 flagged · 8 issues confirmed · 4 corrected · 4 still open

Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Alfred Wegener — The entry states Wegener earned his doctorate in astronomy in 1905 under Julius Bauschinger, but he actually earned it in 1904 from the University of Berlin, and his advisor was Wilhelm Förster, not Bauschinger.

Alfred Wegener — The entry claims Wegener built the first meteorological station in Greenland during his 1906 expedition, but the first such station was established earlier by the Danish Meteorological Institute.

Andrey Kolmogorov — Kolmogorov never married Anna Dmitrievna Egorova; they had a long-term relationship but were not married.

Edward Teller — Teller studied at the University of Karlsruhe and graduated with a degree in chemical engineering (Diplom-Ingenieur), not a Bachelor of Science; the entry incorrectly implies a B.S. as the equivalent.

Edward Teller — Teller emigrated to the United States in 1935, not 'the 1930s' as a vague range.

Edwin Hubble — Hubble's father died in 1913 before Hubble returned from Oxford, not after

Edwin Hubble — Hubble taught Spanish, physics, and basketball at New Albany High School, but mathematics is not consistently documented as a subject he taught there
