Updated on

This deck was modified when it was brought in: The database was queried one difficulty tier at a time, and each multiple-choice question turned into a single card, "question -> full answer": the three distractors are dropped, as they make no sense in active recall. Removed as well: questions that refer to the list of choices or to a missing picture, questions with no question mark, questions whose answer is tied to a moment in time (including "best-selling", "of all time" and other record superlatives), true-or-false items, answers of a single character or beginning as a sentence fragment, restatements of a question already in the pack, pairs of cards that are the same fact asked in both directions, questions already served by another Open Trivia Database pack in this catalogue, and entries whose wording contains a spelling mistake. HTML entities served by the API were decoded and invisible whitespace stripped. No question or answer text was rewritten: a faulty entry is removed, never corrected.
