At least 80 million (3.3%) of Wikipedia’s facts are inconsistent, LLMs may help finding them
A paper titled “Detecting Corpus-Level Knowledge Inconsistencies in Wikipedia with Large Language Models”,[[1]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2025-12-01/Recent_research#cite_note-1) presented earlier this month at the EMNLP conference, examines
