The Arch Ghoul Magus is incorrectly named The Arch Ghoul Magi here.

Even the wiki page has it listed with a photo with the correct name.

Some npcs were Magi's until some time in 2000. In this original bug report we did not have a method of specifying exact era months, but now we do.

Quick search, I see someone commenting it had been changed by October, 2000.

Can anyone find an earlier date?

These are the npcs which possibly need changes/era rules applied. Needs research on if they changed, and when. Posting complete list for posterity.
Magi Rokyl
reclusive ghoul magi
the ghoul arch magi
Magi Frinon
Magi P`Tasa
a magi construct

This sounds a lot like that patch where they fixed eg Emporer Crush. I think I had that dated to summer of 2000, there's a bug thread here somewhere.

This July 2000 patch is almost certainly when these changed imo:

Fixed, pending update

The rank "magi" is replaced with "magus" for Magi Rokyl, reclusive ghoul magi, and the ghoul arch magi [Jul2000].

The other npcs can be changed if research indicates they should.
