We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.
This is a fiction/fan codex: entries describe an in-universe canon. Our audits check canon and internal consistency — external fact-checking does not apply the way it does on real-subject codexes.

Woody Guthrie — The song 'Last Thoughts on Woody Guthrie' was written and recorded after Guthrie's death (1967/1968), not while he was actively dying; it is a posthumous tribute released in 1970.
Woody Guthrie — Guthrie's phrase 'This Machine Kills Fascists' was inscribed on his guitar case, not directly on the guitar itself.
Pete Seeger — The entry incorrectly claims Seeger specifically expressed dislike for 'Like a Rolling Stone' during the Newport 1965 event; his criticism was focused on the electric sound mix and song length generally, noted later.
Pete Seeger — The entry incorrectly states Seeger and Guthrie lived in Harold Ambellan's loft with his fiancée; authoritative biographies support they shared an apartment on West 4th Street, with ownership details often conflated.
Richard Manuel — The sessions described as 'Woodstock sessions' are canonically known as The Basement Tapes, recorded at Big Pink in West Saugerties, New York, not Woodstock proper.
Woody Guthrie — 'Last Thoughts on Woody Guthrie' was recorded and released posthumously in 1970 (on the album Self Portrait), three years after Guthrie's death in 1967; it was not written while he was dying.
Woody Guthrie — The claim that the poem suggests Guthrie is 'as much a source of hope and beauty... as God or religion' is an invented interpretation not supported by the actual lyrics or established canon analysis.
Malibu — Dylan resided in Woodstock, New York, not New York City, prior to his move to Malibu in late 1972.
Malibu — The album Desire was recorded primarily at Columbia Studio E in New York City, not via recording sessions in Malibu, despite songs being written there.
