Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Canção do Flamengo — The entry incorrectly identifies 'O Mundo é do Flamengo' as the official anthem title; canonically, the club's officially adopted anthem (Hino Oficial) is titled 'Hino do Flamengo' (lyrics by Alberto de Oliveira, music by Heitor dos Prazeres), while 'O Mundo é

Nilton Santos Stadium — The stadium was inaugurated on July 30, 2007, rather than being inaugurated specifically for the 2016 Olympics (though it hosted events during them).

Torcida Organizada — The entry incorrectly states that torcidas organizadas emerged in the late 1970s/early 1980s for Flamengo, ignoring the founding of Torcida Jovem do Flamengo in 1941.

Torcida Organizada — The entry incorrectly claims that Flamengo's torcidas do not use specific whistles to signal chants, whereas whistles are a standard coordination tool in Brazilian organized support.

Estádio da Gávea — The entry claims Estádio da Gávea offers a view of Guanabara Bay, but geographically it overlooks the Atlantic Ocean and Pedra da Gávea.

Estádio da Gávea — [contradicted] The stadium is located in the Gávea/Leblon neighborhood (Rua General Severiano) :: The source says the stadium is in the Lagoa neighborhood of Rio de Janeiro.

Fla-Flu Rivalry — The entry incorrectly claims both clubs were born from a shared origin as rowing clubs; Fluminense was founded in 1902 specifically as a football club, while Flamengo was founded as a rowing club in 1895.

Fla-Flu Rivalry — The entry incorrectly states the rivalry stems from a split in 1904; historically, the 1904 schism at Fluminense led to the founding of América FC, whereas Flamengo's football department originated around 1911-1912.

Arrival of Zico at the Club (1971) — The widespread adoption of the nickname 'O Time do Povo' is historically associated with the early 1980s (specifically popularized by a song in 1983), not by the late 1970s.

Arrival of Zico at the Club (1971) — While Zico arrived in 1971, Flamengo's 'Golden Era' (Era de Ouro) is canonically defined as starting around 1978/1980 with the arrival of key players and first major titles, rather than immediately upon his arrival in 1971.

Founding of Clube de Regatas do Flamengo (1895) — Founders count is incorrect; official canon states nineteen students from Colégio Andrews founded the club, not twenty-one.

Founding of Clube de Regatas do Flamengo (1895) — Football department creation date is incorrect; officially established on November 8, 1912, not November 8, 1911.

Maracanã Stadium Tenancy Era — The entry incorrectly states Flamengo claimed their first Copa Libertadores crown in the first leg of the 1981 final at Maracanã; the match ended in a draw, and the title was secured in the second leg in Buenos Aires.

Maracanã Stadium Tenancy Era — The entry falsely claims the stadium hosted multiple Libertadores finals for Flamengo; it only hosted one leg of the 1981 final, as subsequent finals (2019, 2021, 2022) were held at other venues.
