Hi,

I work with the Wolfson Foundation on the PR for the Wolfson History Prize, and wanted to flag an inaccuracy on the Prize's Wikipedia entry.

It currently says "Prizes are given annually for two or three exceptional works published during the year, with an occasional oeuvre prize (a general award for an individual's distinguished contribution to the writing of history)."

Until 2016, two winners were usually awarded (occasionally three), however you can see on the Wolfson History Prize website here - www.wolfsonhistoryprize.org.uk/about/ - this is no longer the case. One winner is chosen from a shortlist of six each year.

Would it be possible to update the copy accordingly to: "A shortlist of six books is announced each spring, with one overall Prize winner announced in early summer. The Wolfson History Prize is the most valuable non-fiction writing prize in the UK, with the winner receiving a total prize of £40,000, and the shortlisted authors receiving £4,000 each."

Thanks,

Ben
