343. John Ankerberg - correct denomination of https://ref.ly/logos4/Factbook?ref=bio.johnankerberg; being born in 1945 does not make you Pre-Reformation.

344. For that matter, these entities don't belong to that denomination's targeted timeframe either: https://ref.ly/logos4/Factbook?ref=bio.alianzaevangelicamundial, https://ref.ly/logos4/Factbook?ref=bio.jhbernard, https://ref.ly/logos4/Factbook?ref=bio.nealjanthony.

345. It's misleading (and potentially rather offensive) to put a bunch of medieval Catholic Saints like Thomas Aquinas and Catherine of Siena in a denomination with both a classification and an Also: of "Proto-Protestantism". See and fix https://ref.ly/logos4/Factbook?ref=bk.%25PrereformationPostschism_Denom

The results for searching the "Cost of Discipleship" give me The Cost of Discipleship (Audio) by Bonhoeffer which I don't have, but not the text version which I do have in his works volume 4 called Discipleship. But volume 4 does appear as a result when the Factbook search is just Discipleship. I forgot that the The Cost of Discipleship is the English version title of the original German title Discipleship.

So just as observation of how the Factbook could offer better first time results in situations like this.

Ah! I see what happened. It's definitely from that resource and it's not a typo... it's a misreading!

LLS:CATHDICTADDISARN">archives, archivist (Greek ἀρχεῖα). The utility of the preservation of public records was fully understood by the ancients; the record office at Rome, which Virgil alludes to (“populi tabularia vidit”), was an enormous building. Episcopal archives have probably been kept from the very beginning of the Church. The archivist or Proto-scriniarius of Rome was an important personage; besides having charge of a large portion of the records, he was the head of all the secretaries and notaries of the Roman Court. A decree of the Congregation of the Council of Trent (1626) specifies what ought to be preserved in an episcopal archive—namely, the processes and proceedings in all causes tried in the bishop’s court; episcopal sentences, precepts, decrees, mandates, &c.; reports and registers of all kinds relating to ecclesiastical affairs within the diocese; and complete inventories of Church property, movable and immovable. (Ferraris, Archivium.)

I've bolded the most important part. According to this resource, the Sacra Congregatio Cardinalium Concilii Tridentini interpretum, here translated as the "Congregation of the Council of Trent", but better known as the "Sacred Congregation of the Council" (and more literally, as the "Sacred Congregation of Cardinals for the Interpretation of the Council of Trent"), which has since evolved and been renamed (repeatedly) and is currently known as the Congregation for Clergy, published a decree in 1626 that "specifies what ought to be preserved in an episcopal archive".

Someone, probably someone not very familiar with Catholic stuff, wasn't reading carefully and thought that this article was referring to the Council of Trent (Concilium Tridentinum). It was not.

[quote]

HADITH. It has been defined as “the story of a particular occurrence, and Sunnah as the rule of law deduced from it. It is the practice of the Prophet, his model behavior” (Fyzee, 1967, 19). Next to the Koran, the Sunnah, Tradition, is the second source of the doctrine and ritual of Islam, political theory, and Islamic law. During the life of the Prophet Muhammad, stories about his actions and sayings were collected by eyewitnesses and then told to others. These stories were transmitted by word of mouth. A chain (isnad) of credible transmitters was produced that preceded the text (matn), which went something like this: “Muhammad bin Abdullah said to us that Abu Khalid said that Abu Malik said that Sa’d bin ‘Ubaydah said that the son of ‘Umar said that the Prophet said ‘Islam is founded on five things’.” The hadith were eventually recorded in writing, and a science of hadith criticism classified hadiths as Sound (sahih), if there was no weak link in the chain of transmitters and corroboration existed from others; Good (hasan), if there was a weak link or the character of the transmitter was doubtful; and Weak (dha’if), if there were several weak links or the narrator was unreliable. This resulted in the production of biographical works that described the qualifications and character of transmitters.
Six major collections of hadith were eventually compiled, which were accepted by all Sunni Muslims. They included those of al-Bukhari (d. 870), Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj (d. 875), Ibn Majah al-Qazvini (d. 886), Abu Dawud al-Sijistani (d. 888), Abu ‘Isa al-Tirmidhi (d. 892), and Abu Abd al-Rahman al-Nasa’i (d. 915). The collections of al-Bukhari and al-Muslim are considered the most reliable. Malik ibn Anas (d. 795) and Ahmad ibn Hanbal (d. 855), the founders of two orthodox schools, also produced collections. One collection by Husayn al-Baghawi, titled Niche for Lights (Mishkat al-masabih), has been translated into English by James Robson and published in four volumes. In addition to the hadith of the Prophet, Shi’ites also use those of their imams. Authoritative collections of the Shi’ites were compiled by Muhammad ibn Yaqub al-Kulayni (d. 939), Ibn Babawayhi (Babuya, d. 991), and Muhammad al-Tusi (d. 1067).
The hadith provide a wealth of information regarding the personality, family, and activities of the Prophet and serve as examples for emulation, providing guidance in matters of jurisprudence not stipulated in the Koran. A Western, revisionist school supports the Goldzieher-Schacht thesis that the majority of hadith were “back-projected as the sayings of the Prophet only at a much later date.” Another view holds that the Sunnah is actually the local practice of the people of Medina; but this interpretation is not likely to find acceptance in the Islamic world.

Ludwig W. Adamec, The a to Z of Islam (Lanham, MD: Scarecrow Press, 2009).

Factbook erroneous labels it as a belief rather than collections (writings) of oral "history".

Adolf Schlatter is listed as both Other Protestant and Lutheran. I believe Lutheran is the more accurate despite the complexity of the German state church.

Sorry MJ but I have to disagree. In his autobiography Schlatter writes that being a member of the reformed church in Switzerland, the unified (German: "uniert") one in Prussia and the lutheran church in Tübingen did not mean an inner change for him. Already in his childhood he had experienced the community between his parents even though his father was a baptist and his mother went - together with the children - to the reformed state church.

Thanks, we'll get these corrected. Quite a bit of the data associating authors with denominations came from users, and we haven't been able to review it all (we have more than 100k authors in Factbook), so please let us know if you find other incorrect associations.
