This section covers errors or omissions in various editions of reference books. These books have often been around in different editions for quite a while; translated versions often also differ from the originals, hence some errors may or may not be found in your edition.
The number of errors does not indicate if a book is good or not, it simply shows that one must learn how to use the information provided. The Danckert book for example contains much more text and goes through more history, thus is more prone to error. Roentgen's books on the other hand are often deemed useless as their content-to-error ratio is simply horrible.
