    Mitsuku won the Loebner Prize five times (2013, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019), not four.

    Before

    <td>2016</td><td>Mitsuku (Steve Worswick)</td><td>Won Loebner Prize; went on to win four times</td>

    After

    <td>2016</td><td>Mitsuku (Steve Worswick)</td><td>Won Loebner Prize; went on to win five times</td>

    Why: Verified fix already fully applied in the table cell (five times); no other mentions existed; FAQ field does not reference Mitsuku or the Loebner Prize win count. No further changes needed.
