Error Under Dichromic Acid Section
"The caveat to this statement, however, is that a secondary ketone will be oxidized no further than a ketone and dichromic acid will oxidize the aldehyde only. The aldehyde will be oxidized to a ketone for the first step of the mechanism and oxidized again to a carboxylic acid, contingent on no significant steric hindrance impeding this reaction."

An aldehyde cannot be oxidized to a ketone. However, I am unsure if the aldehyde is oxidized directly to a carboxylic acid. Additionally, the oxidation of an aldehyde to a carboxylic acid relies on wet oxidation conditions to form the intermediate geminal diol so the caveat should include this.
