It is indeed also a 'learning' site in disguise so I do hope people learn about the trivia (and themselves) while playing. To answer your very pertinent question: how do we ensure the answers are correct? At present, there is a link 'I think it is wrong' that sends a message to the author and admin. The author can reply or change the question. So far about 10 of the 700 questions needed correction. Admins also can edit questions for spelling mistakes or to correct them. So far this works out. The idea is later to make people who reach a certain level of points (and thus are good quizzers), able to edit and correct questions. Thanks for the article.
