Fallacy of division erratum

In the exception part of Fallacy of Division, just above the "tip" it says:

Exception: When a part of the whole has a property that, by definition, causes the part to take on that property.

I think it should be:

Exception: When a part of the whole has a property that, by definition, causes the part of the whole to take on that property.
