Reliability tier 3: a Wikipedia entry, written and revised by unnamed volunteer editors, suited to an uncontested, easily checked biographical point rather than a disputed claim.
Notes
Crowd-sourced tertiary reference, consulted directly, 2026-08-11. Used here only for the plain, checkable facts that Joseph Smith Jr. was born 23 December 1805 and died (killed by a mob) 27 June 1844, matching the atlas's own pre-existing lifespan text on his entity. 1
