They are just clerical errors and do not relieve you of your obligations. If you refuse to sign a new or corrected lease if it is tendered to you, then the landlord can start eviction procedures. The lease is an instrument that protects you from rent increases for a set period of time, so it is in your best interest to sign it if you plan on staying there.
I can't see any agency with jurisdiction on this matter calling a lease invalid because your wife's name is misspelled or crossed out more than 3 times.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
