6 issues found and fixed.
HIGH
- Swiss Historical Society name wrong: 'Schweizerische Geschichtforschende Gesellschaft' corrected to 'Schweizerische Gesellschaft für Geschichte' (SGG-SSH). The former is the name of an older 19th-century predecessor society.
MEDIUM
- '8,000 articles at launch', 'updated every four weeks', 'text-focused and without illustrations': all carried over from discarded Wikipedia source; not present in Neuenschwander 2018 or any other active citation. Removed.
- 'at a ceremony at the Swiss National Library': not supported by Neuenschwander 2018 (the claim it was attributed to). Removed.
- Foundation Board presidents list (Chevallaz, Rüesch, Guinand, Schmid, Brunschwig Graf): attributed to xwiki-hls-reference:hls-governance-contributors, which does not contain this information. Removed.
- 'January 1, 2017' for foundation dissolution: attributed to hls-dhs-dss-about:hds-overview, which does not support this specific date. Reduced to '2017' only.
