It says the term "pignistic" was coined by Smets in "Smets, P., "Data Fusion in the Transferable Belief Model", Proc. 3rd Intl. Conf. Information Fusion, Paris, France (2000) pp. 21-33.".

However, the term was brought up way earlier by Smets in "The transferable belief model, Smets, Kennes, 1994, Artificial Intelligence v66, pp 191-234.

It might be beneficial to leave the quote from the 2000 paper, just somehow mention that Smets already proposed "pignistic" in 1994.
