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.

Peter Bishop — The LORE section states that Walter was committed to St. Claire's Mental Institution in 1991 after Carla Warren's death, but canon shows Walter was committed after kidnapping Peter in 1985, not in 1991.
Peter Bishop — The 'DID YOU KNOW' section claims Peter published papers under a falsified MIT degree, which is not supported by canon.
William Bell — The entry states that Bell 'discovered' how to travel between universes, but the first crossing was accidental via Walter's Cortexiphan trials, and Bell and Walter developed the technology rather than Bell discovering it alone.
William Bell — The entry states 'Observer-related schemes only emerged in the final season,' but Bell's involvement with Observers is hinted at earlier (e.g., Season 4), so this is inaccurate.
Olivia Dunham — The entry states 'Primary Antagonists=The Observers, Walternate (alternate Walter), William Bell'. William Bell is not a primary antagonist; he is initially an ambiguous figure and later an ally.
Olivia Dunham — The entry says 'Olivia is a Northwestern University-educated FBI Special Agent'. In the series, Olivia is stated to have attended Harvard University.
Michael — Michael is not the genetic son of Donald; Donald is September, not his alternate-universe counterpart.
Michael — The claim that September is shot and killed at the last moment is incorrect; September is shot and killed by another Observer (Windmark) during the final sequence, but it is not 'at the last moment' before Michael is sent—Walter takes Michael after September's
Observer Resistance — The statement that the fifth season takes place '10 years after the conclusion of the fourth season' is incorrect; the fourth season ends in 2012 (or 2026 in the altered timeline), and the fifth season's 2036 setting is approximately 24 years after the fourth
The Bureau — The unit is called 'Fringe Division,' not 'the Bureau'; 'the Bureau' typically refers to the FBI itself, not this specific unit.
The Bureau — Origin funding from Massive Dynamic is incorrect; the Fringe Division was initially funded by the U.S. government through the FBI, not by Massive Dynamic, though Massive Dynamic later provided resources and technology.
Fringe Division — The entry states the first season concluded on January 18, 2013, but that is the series finale date. The first season actually concluded on May 12, 2009.
Fringe Division — The entry says the unaired episode 'Unearthed' was broadcast as part of the second season as episode 7 as a special episode. In canon, 'Unearthed' aired as the 11th episode of the second season (not episode 7), though it was produced as a first-season episode.
The Alliance — The alliance between Prime Fringe Division and Walternate's Alternate Bureau was formed in Season 4, not Season 5.
The Alliance — The bunker used as their base was originally a storage facility for amber and other materials, not a personal fallout shelter built by Walter Bishop in the 1970s.
