Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

César Pelli — The entry states Pelli received the Aga Khan Award for Architecture in 2004 for the design of the Petronas Towers, but the award was given to the project team and client, not to Pelli personally.

David Adjaye — Adjaye was knighted in the 2017 Queen's Birthday Honours, not the 2017 New Year Honours.

David Adjaye — Adjaye was appointed to the Order of Merit in 2023, not 2022.

Dorothy Draper — The claim that Dorothy Draper's first major hotel project was the Sherry-Netherland in 1927 is incorrect; her first major hotel project was the Carlyle Hotel in New York (1930).

Dorothy Draper — The claim that she started Architectural Clearing House in 1925 as 'arguably the first official interior design business' is misleading; Elsie de Wolfe is widely credited with establishing the first professional interior design practice earlier.
