* Use the translation that is the most easy to understand.
* Use the translation that is the most easy to understand.
* Make the section heading as clear as possible. For example previously a section was titled ''"Golden Calf Lows"'' ([http://www.usc.edu/org/cmje/religious-texts/quran/verses/020-qmt.php#020.088 Verse 20:88]). A better heading is ''"Golden Calf Statue Moos"''. The reason is that the new section is more clear and easy to understand. In this case, as compared to "moo" fewer people understand what "lows" means. Also, the word "statue" has been added in case someone could claim its a calf with a certain type of color. All of this makes the heading easier to understand.

* Weaker errors can be listed in a separate section at the bottom called "Other Quranic verses" with a note "The following are Quranic verses which may contain figures of speech but are still questionable". For this section, don't make any section headings and just list the verses. The reason is that we still want to keep a record of such verses but not present them as obvious errors. These weaker verses are not as strong as others but they could still be seen as adding to the evidence against the Quran.
