The World Religions and Spirituality Project is an online academic reference whose individual group profiles are written by named religion scholars of record rather than by anonymous or crowd-sourced contributors, a documented authorship model this atlas relies on and cites by profile title and author for exactly that reason. Its standing rests on that named scholarly authorship for each entry, checkable against the byline on the specific profile cited, not on the hosting university's name alone. This record has not independently traced a documented history of revision to any specific profile. Use it for established scholarly facts about a specific new or minority religious movement a named profile directly addresses; a broader or more current claim about that movement may need checking against the profile's own stated revision date.
