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.

Bob Marley — The claim that 'I Shot the Sheriff' and 'Get Up, Stand Up' both charted in the UK in 1973 is incorrect; neither charted in the UK in 1973.
Bob Marley — The claim that Johnny Nash's cover of 'Stir It Up' was a UK hit for the group is misleading; it was a hit for Nash, not for the Wailers.
Aston Barrett — The entry incorrectly states that Aston Barrett played on *Soul Rebels* (1970); he and his brother joined The Wailers during the sessions for *Soul Revolution Part II* (1971), not for *Soul Rebels*.
Bunny Wailer — Bunny Wailer was primarily raised by his grandmother, not solely by his father.
Bunny Wailer — Bunny Wailer did sign with JAD Records and Cayman Music after his 1967 prison sentence.
Kaya Tour — The claim that Kaya is the tenth studio album by Bob Marley and the Wailers is incorrect; it is actually the eleventh studio album.
Kaya Tour — The claim that the album was produced by Bob Marley himself is inaccurate; it was produced by Bob Marley and the Wailers, with Chris Blackwell as executive producer.
Island Records Debut — The entry claims Blackwell was 'initially unconvinced by their lack of live performance history', but the Wailers had a substantial live performance history in Jamaica and Blackwell was impressed by their live presence.
Island Records Debut — The entry states the foundational tracks were 'shipped to Island Studios in London', but they were recorded in Jamaica and the tapes were sent to London for mixing and overdubbing.
Waiting In Vain — The claim that 'Roots' was included on the 1979 compilation 'Survival' is incorrect; 'Survival' is a studio album by Bob Marley & The Wailers, not a compilation, and does not include 'Roots'.
Waiting In Vain — The B-side 'Roots' was not originally released as a non-album single in 1972; it was first released as a single in 1972 but as a non-album track, and it did not appear on the 1979 compilation Survival. 'Roots' appears on the 1975 compilation 'Rasta Revolution'
I Shot The Sheriff — The claim that Clapton's version of 'I Shot The Sheriff' was nominated for a Grammy Award is incorrect.
Rastaman Vibration — The entry claims that 'Rastaman Vibration' is the ninth studio album by Bob Marley and the Wailers, which is not a standard or commonly cited number in the widely accepted canon.
