+
+[?25l[?25lI'll share my reasoning process (using tool: thinking): Let me analyze the current document content for Alexander the Great and identify what needs to be done:
+
+1. REVIEW QUESTIONS: Skip (0 open questions confirmed)
+
+2. IDENTITY & ORGANIZATION: The title is "Alexander the Great" which is a well-known epithet. His full name is "Alexander III of Macedon" - but "Alexander the Great" is the commonly known name and is already mentioned in the overview. The document title and filename seem appropriate for this knowledge base. No change needed here.
+
+Wait, looking at the document more carefully, there's a duplicate title:
+```
+# Alexander the Great
+
+# Alexander the Great
+```
+There are two H1 headings. That's a content issue I should fix.
+
+Also, I notice this line in the Legacy section:
+```
+- Empire divided among his generals (Diadochi) after his death @t[~1991] [^2]
+```
+The temporal tag `@t[~1991]` is clearly wrong - it should be something like `@t[~323 BCE..]` or similar, referring to when the empire was divided after his death in 323 BCE. The 1991 date seems to have been incorrectly applied from the footnote reference year (Green, P. 1991).
+
+3. ENRICH FROM OUTSIDE SOURCES: I should search for additional information about Alexander the Great to enrich the document.
+
+Let me plan the fixes:
+1. Fix the duplicate H1 heading
+2. Fix the incorrect temporal tag `@t[~1991]` - should be something like `@t[~323 BCE..]` since the division happened after his death in 323 BCE
+3. Search for additional scholarly information to enrich the document
+
+Let me search for information about Alexander the Great first, then make all the updates together.

+
+[?25l> I can see two issues right away before searching:
+1. Duplicate # Alexander the Great heading
+2. @t[~1991] on the Diadochi line — clearly wrong, picked up the footnote year instead of a BCE date

+2. Fix the incorrect temporal tag `@t[~1991]` on the Diadochi line - should be `@t[~323 BCE..]` since the division happened after his death in 323 BCE
+3. Add enrichment:
+   - Mother: Olympias (Epirote princess)
+   - Titles held: King of Macedon, Hegemon of the Hellenic League, Pharaoh of Egypt, Great King of Persia
+   - Death date precision: died 10-11 June 323 BCE per Babylonian astronomical diary
+   - Cause of death: debated — fever after illness (Arrian, Plutarch, Diodorus); theories include typhoid, poisoning
+   - League of Corinth leadership (335 BCE)
+   - Thebes destruction (335 BCE)
+
+Let me be surgical and add only well-sourced facts. The key additions:
+- Mother: Olympias
+- Titles at death
+- Death date precision (June 323 BCE)
+- Cause of death debate
+- League of Corinth
+
+For the `@t[~1991]` bug - this is clearly a data corruption issue where the footnote year was used as a temporal tag. The correct tag should be `@t[~323 BCE..]` since the Diadochi succession wars began after Alexander's death in 323 BCE.
+
+Let me now write the updated document. I'll be surgical - fix the two bugs and add enrichment content.

+
+Actually, looking at the instructions: "Use update_document to edit — be surgical, change only what needs changing"

+## Death
+Alexander died in the palace of Nebuchadnezzar II in Babylon on 10–11 June 323 BCE, confirmed by a Babylonian astronomical diary. @t[=323 BCE] The cause of death is debated: ancient sources (Arrian, Plutarch, Diodorus) describe a prolonged fever following heavy drinking; modern theories include typhoid fever complicated by other illness, and poisoning.

+```
+
+Wait, I should be careful about the footnote format. The existing footnotes use `[^1]` and `[^2]`. I'll add `[^3]`, `[^4]`, `[^5]`.
+
+Also, I should note that the `@t[~323 BCE..]` syntax - the `~` means approximate. But the Diadochi succession started right after 323 BCE, so it's not really approximate. Let me use `@t[323 BCE..]` without the tilde since the start date is known.
+
+Actually, looking at the temporal dating conventions:
+- `@t[911 BCE..]` — started, ongoing from that point
+
+So `@t[323 BCE..]` would be appropriate for "started after 323 BCE and continued". But the Diadochi wars ended eventually (around 275 BCE with the death of Pyrrhus). So maybe `@t[323 BCE..275 BCE]` would be more accurate? But that's getting complex. Let me just use `@t[~323 BCE..]` to indicate it started around the time of Alexander's death.
+
+Actually, the Diadochi period is generally considered 323-281 BCE (ending with the Battle of Corupedium). Let me use `@t[323 BCE..281 BCE]`.
+
+Hmm, but the document says "Empire divided among his generals (Diadochi) after his death" - this is a statement about the division happening after his death, not about the entire Diadochi period. So `@t[~323 BCE..]` makes sense as "starting around 323 BCE". But actually the division started immediately after his death, so `@t[323 BCE..]` without tilde is fine.
+
+Let me keep it simple: `@t[323 BCE..]` - the division started in 323 BCE and the successor states persisted for centuries.
+
+Actually, I think the most accurate representation is just `@t[~323 BCE..]` since the exact timing of the division is somewhat approximate (it happened over the course of the Wars of the Diadochi). Let me use that.
+
+Now let me also think about whether I should add a footnote for the Wikipedia sources. The authoring guide says "Every factual claim cites a source — primary ancient texts or modern archaeological scholarship". Wikipedia isn't ideal as a primary source. Let me use better sources:
+
+- For Olympias: I can cite Plutarch's "Life of Alexander" which mentions her
+- For titles: Arrian's Anabasis mentions these
+- For death date: Babylonian astronomical diary (as cited in Wikipedia)
+
+Let me be more careful with sources. I'll cite:
+- Olympias: Plutarch, *Life of Alexander*
+- Titles: Arrian, *Anabasis of Alexander* (already cited as [^1])
+- Death date precision: Babylonian astronomical diary (as cited by modern scholars)
+- Thebes: Arrian, *Anabasis of Alexander*
+
+Actually, I'll keep it simple and use the sources I have. Let me finalize the document.
+
+One more thing - the `<!-- factbase:817dc2 -->` header should be preserved at the top.
+
+Let me write the final version now.
