Muller ISBN

@Ibn Juferi: In Peccatism § CITEREFMuller2000, a citation for "The Unaccommodated Calvin" by Richard Muller (theologian), you give ISBN 9780195145984. However, both Google Books and the Open Library show that ISBN as being for "Systematic Theology" by Robert Jenson. Which did you mean to cite here? jlwoodwa (talk) 05:26, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't just a nitpick – I'm attempting to verify the claim that Calvin's doctrine of total depravity […] closely aligns with the idea of peccatism, and I want to make sure I'm checking the right source. jlwoodwa (talk) 06:09, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have fixed the ISBN. Ibn Juferi (talk) 09:24, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Etymology citations

@Ibn Juferi: I noticed that you removed both {{citation needed}} tags from § Etymology. I don't think the existing citations in that section directly support the claims that The term "peccatism" is derived from the Latin word peccāre and The suffix "-ism" […] form[s] the term "peccatism" to describe the belief in the inherent sinfulness of human beings. Following WP:CHALLENGE and WP:DETAG, I believe those {{cn}} tags shouldn't have been removed. Do you know of any sources that directly support those claims, or do you have any objections to me readding the {{cn}} tags? jlwoodwa (talk) 17:54, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The sources cited clearly says that "peccare" is a Latin word. Ibn Juferi (talk) 18:20, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's true, but they don't say that the term "peccatism" is derived from the word peccāre. jlwoodwa (talk) 18:24, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I searched on Google and the correlation is made: https://www.google.com/search?q=peccatism&oq=peccatism&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIGCAEQRRg7MgYIAhBFGDsyBggDEEUYOzIGCAQQRRg8MgYIBRBFGDwyBggGEEUYPNIBCDE3ODFqMGoxqAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Ibn Juferi (talk) 19:36, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see what you mean. That's a Google search for the word "peccatism". It returns eight (non-Wikipedia) web pages; as far as I can tell, none mention the Latin word peccāre. jlwoodwa (talk) 19:53, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Since the statement The term "peccatism" is derived from the Latin word peccāre is now followed by an inline citation, I didn't tag it with {{citation needed}}. Instead, since the cited source doesn't support the claim, I tagged it with {{failed verification}}. Please do not remove that tag unless you are replacing it with an inline citation to a source which directly supports the claim. jlwoodwa (talk) 23:07, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Citation quotes

@Ibn Juferi: Thank you for adding page numbers after I tagged the article with {{page numbers needed}}. I was able to find a copy of "The Unaccommodated Calvin", but it has ISBN 0-19-511681-X, which corresponds to the 13-digit ISBN 9780195116816. Since this differs from your copy (ISBN 9780195151688), we may have different editions with different pagination (see Wikipedia:Citing sources § Books and print articles). Could you include a brief quote with your citations, as described in WP:FOOTQUOTE, so that I can identify which portion of the text you're citing? jlwoodwa (talk) 19:47, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
