• 08:2308:23, 28 May 2023 diff hist −28 Web service Undid revision 1139101963 by User:Otojon. In the broader sense (server running on a computer), the served resources can include HTML. The resources are served *over* HTTP (as mentioned in the next paragraph).
• 08:1408:14, 28 May 2023 diff hist −253 Web service Partially undid revision 1086227823 by Badja. I don't think "web" is a such a big misnomer -- web services run *over* the *internet*, but *form part* of the *WWW* (esp. in the sense of the second bullet). They use URLs and HTTP (2 out of the 3 specs on https://www.w3.org/Help/#webinternet), so I think they get a pass for (typically) not using HTML or a web browser (in the sense of the first bullet). I don't think it's worth a paragraph in the intro.

• 12:1912:19, 16 April 2023 diff hist −55 Social engineering (security) Fix "forgot password" example in intro: using the automated "forgot password" function to reset a password is *not* social engineering; the original example (revision 1003813198) was contacting the support system and asking them to reset the password
• 10:0910:09, 16 April 2023 diff hist −13 Dishwasher salmon →Preparation: it is the *dishwasher* that doesn't smell (the prepared food *does* smell like fish); introduced in first revision, presumably a mistranslation/misunderstanding)

• 10:0910:09, 23 December 2022 diff hist −19 Men in Black: International restore intro sentence about "standalone sequel" (I don't think it is a sequel of MIB3 specifically, so drop that part -- the intro already says it's the 4th film) (also there was an extra "the" before)
• 10:0410:04, 23 December 2022 diff hist −346 Men in Black: International Manually undid good-faith revision 1093760707 by 2600:1702:c9f:610:6576:d1de:74f3:9b06 (that revision was mostly accurate, but had style issues, and the subsequent edits introduced inaccuracies; the original version was fine, so I'm just restoring it -- much easier than correcting the current version)

5 November 2022

• 14:5314:53, 5 November 2022 diff hist −14 Green Lantern (film) →Plot: Remove word "inadvertently" because it is ambiguous (it's true that Parallax did not intend to get pulled in, but Hal did intend for that to happen)

• 16:0116:01, 2 November 2022 diff hist −9 Quine (computing) Undid good faith edit by Partofthemachine. It's true that on the whole this article is about programming, but in the context of fixed points "function" refers to mathematical function ("y = f(x)") rather than computer science function ("sequence of instructions").

• 13:5213:52, 3 July 2022 diff hist −65 The Informer (2019 film) →Plot: Koslow does not call Grens, he calls Wilcox and then Sofia. (It is Sofia who calls Grens when the two gangsters arrive.)
• 13:4213:42, 3 July 2022 diff hist −15 The Informer (2019 film) →Plot: The explosive gas is propane, not CO2. (The label on the tank is partially visible at 59:15 during the roof cleaning scene and says "PROP...". CO2 is not flammable.)

• 18:5318:53, 29 June 2022 diff hist −6 The Peanut Butter Falcon →Production: Undid some changes by 142.113.169.132 (3/3): "Venice": +"California" ("Venice" normally refers to Italy), "The production of the film was shot ... in July 2017" => "In July 2017, production began" (the former is grammatically incorrect and makes it sound like it was filmed over one month; I don't know if that's right -- it's not in the source).
• 18:5218:52, 29 June 2022 diff hist +27 The Peanut Butter Falcon →Plot: Undid some changes by 142.113.169.132 (2/3): +"The film ends" (that scene was a definite ending), -"wakes up" (makes it sound like Tyler woke up for first time while they were driving, which is wrong), "They plan to" => "implying" (their plan wasn't clearly stated).
• 18:5018:50, 29 June 2022 diff hist +59 The Peanut Butter Falcon →Plot: Undid some changes by 142.113.169.132 (1/3): "leaves" => "escapes" (it was definitely an escape, "leave" is way too weak), "defends them": +"with the shotgun" (important detail, gives better picture), +"hits Tyler on the head" (ditto), "before [throw]" => "right as [throw]" (the throw actually happens *before* Tyler is hit)

That revision removed a reference and added unsourced claims (e.g. "received generally negative reviews *by fans* and critics alike", but the Rotten Tomatoes audience score is 66% which is positive; also no reference for "too outdated") (and small spelling mistake: "it’s" should be "its").

• 12:4612:46, 5 June 2022 diff hist −14 m Men in Black: International Partially undid revision 1025968730 by 94.237.76.31 (talk). Molly wasn't neuralyzed. The agents only neuralyzed her parents because they thought she was asleep. (Also change spelling to "neuralyzation" with "y", which seems more consistent.)
• 12:3512:35, 5 June 2022 diff hist −8 m Men in Black: International Undid revision 1024958494 by 94.237.76.31 (talk). "Steve" is not really the name of Pawny, he only said that it's his name because he was feeling left out when the names of Agent M and Agent H were revealed. The other characters consistently refer to him as "Pawny", and that's also how he is listed in the end credits.
