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.

Chas Chandler — Chas Chandler was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994 as a member of The Animals, not as an individual manager for Hendrix and Slade
Chas Chandler — The claim that Chandler discovered Nick Van Eede while he worked as a hospital porter is not widely documented and may be apocryphal or incorrect
Janis Joplin — The 'DID YOU KNOW' section contains a truncated sentence that cuts off mid-statement, making it incomplete and thus a factual error in presentation.
Al Wilson & The Soul Mates — The group is called 'Al Wilson & The Soul Mates' in the entry, but there is no widely known group by that name in established music history; Al Wilson was a solo artist, and 'The Soul Mates' is not a recognized backing group for him.
Al Wilson & The Soul Mates — The key hit 'Show and Tell' is correctly attributed to Al Wilson as a solo artist, but it is not a hit by a group called 'Al Wilson & The Soul Mates'; the entry falsely implies the group had that hit.
Curtis Knight & The Squires — The active period is stated as 'Late 1965 through early 1966', but Hendrix first joined Curtis Knight & The Squires in late 1965 and remained with them intermittently until mid-1966, not just early 1966.
Curtis Knight & The Squires — The 'Did You Know' section states 'There is no widely accepted evidence that Hendrix sang lead vocals on any officially released Curtis Knight recordings from that period.' This is factually incorrect: Hendrix does sing lead vocals on at least one officially r
The Monterey Pop Festival — Hendrix was the final act of the festival; The Mamas & the Papas performed immediately before him, not after.
The Monterey Pop Festival — Hendrix was originally scheduled for Sunday; the schedule change involved The Who and Hendrix swapping order on Sunday night after The Who's manager insisted they go on before Hendrix, not because of a Saturday-to-Sunday move.
Chas Chandler Management — The claim that it was Chandler's idea for Hendrix to set his guitar on fire is factually incorrect; Hendrix had already done this before Chandler's involvement, and the idea is not attributed to Chandler.
Chas Chandler Management — The entry states Chandler discovered Hendrix at Cafe Wha? in September 1966, but the actual discovery occurred in late August or early September 1966, not specifically September.
Meeting Chas Chandler — The meeting between Hendrix and Chandler took place at the Cafe Wha?, not the Cheetah Club.
Meeting Chas Chandler — The formal management contract was signed in London, not New York.
Formation of The Experience — The claim that Noel Redding 'had already established a reputation for reliability within the British music industry' is an overstatement; he was relatively unknown before joining The Experience.
