John Wick Codexery — Data & Quality

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.

Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Zero — Zero's students slash the Bowery King multiple times with a wakizashi after the King refuses to abdicate his position. This is incorrect: In the film, Zero's students slash the Bowery King with a katana, not a wakizashi.

Zero — Zero is killed by being thrown off the roof by John Wick. This is incorrect: In the film, Zero is stabbed by John Wick with a knife and then thrown off the roof, but the cause of death is the stabbing, not the fall alone.

The Black Book — The entry states Santino presented the marker to John in person in Chapter 2, but the film shows Santino sent it via a courier.

The Black Book — The object is called a 'marker' in the films, not a 'Black Book'; the entry's title and description using 'Black Book' are factually inaccurate.

The Puppy Gift Incident — The puppy is a beagle, but in the film it is a Jack Russell Terrier, not a beagle.

The Puppy Gift Incident — The car stolen is a 1969 Mustang Mach 1, but in the film it is a 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429, not a Mach 1.

New York Continental Siege — The siege described does not occur in the John Wick films; the New York Continental is not attacked or sieged in Chapter 3, and the only Continental siege is in Chapter 4 at Osaka.

New York Continental Siege — The claim that 'Winston locks down the hotel only after the attack begins' is incorrect because no attack occurs and Winston instead negotiates and betrays John.

Miami — The entry states that 'No major US city outside of New York is explicitly featured in the franchise,' which is false because Washington, D.C. is shown in John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum.

Chicago — The entry states that Chicago is the primary setting for the third chapter's climax and that John Wick seeks refuge in the Bowery King's basement beneath a church there, but in John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, the climax occurs in New York City and the Bower

Chicago — The entry claims the Continental Hotel in Chicago is a key establishment, but no Continental Hotel in Chicago is depicted or referenced in the John Wick film series.
