There's a weird typo that shows up in the page's title that can actually be seen above on this page, in fact: "YMMV S Fdebris". Does someone smarter than me know how to go about correcting this?

It's The Problem with Pen Island. YMMV.SF Debris and YMMV.S Fdebris are the same page, but the different URL used to get there gives a differently spelled title. It's an artifact.

I'm okay with noting a few research failures on his trivia page or whatever, but Critical Research Failure isn't the place to do that. Even the first paragraph on that page says "anyone with a high school education or cursory knowledge" knows it's an error — that's what makes it critical — so "Columbine shooting caused the change in Batman's editing" isn't on that level. Same with "can tell a Lithuanian and a Russian apart" (or "pays enough attention to get that nuance" I suppose).
Being able to math enough to figure out 8 years vs. 48 years might count, though.
