I 424ff
Objectivity of conceptual standards: we cannot all individually (each of us) be wrong about them, but we can also be wrong about them all together! (electron, mass in outer space). Error about proper use. >Use, >Objectivity.
I 102f
Error: everyone individually and all together can be wrong about whether a conceptual content is appropriate in a particular situation.
I 269
Objectivity/Error: it is claimed that social practices suffice to give allegations objectively representational content. These are then objective truth conditions.
Even the entire community can be wrong with such an assessment. Universal error is only possible with standards, not with concepts, see above I 105). (VsDavidson).
I 921
Error/Brandom: The words that community as a whole could not be mistaken were put into the mouths of Wittgenstein, Kripke and Wright - if that was true, practice would not have to orient itself on the accuracy of representations - BrandomVsKripke). >Correctness, >Representation.
