The stats errors are so common and easy to correct these days that there is a statscheck (ala spellcheck) program (can't find the link, sorry) out of the Belgium that trawls through journals and checks the stats. Mind you, these are peer reviewed and published articles. Still, about half have erroneous stats, sometimes ones that invalidate the paper. Yeah, we all screw up, but it seems like a lot of the screw ups happen much too often. As for a place that has common stats errors and how to fix them? Well, just about every single intro to stats book, the entire R language, just about any library for just about any language, google, etc. The issue is not that the folks are making honest mistakes, that happens, it's that the system is perverse and incentivizes them.
