Непоследовательное написание было приведено к единообразию только при наличии сильного преобладания; изменения отмечены индивидуально. Различные варианты написания имени, которое сейчас пишется «Shakespeare», оставлены без изменений, как и формы «Albert Durer» и «Gutemberg».

В указателе пропущенная или непоследовательная пунктуация была молчаливо приведена к единообразию. Все остальные ошибки отмечены двумя способами: с помощью всплывающих окон при наведении курсора мыши там, где встречается ошибка, и повторно в конце каждой главы или раздела, после всех сносок.
