I'm quite unsure how this work, having just created my Wiki account to ask this question/request.

Can we get a citation for this statement" "The top theologians of the Inquisition at the Faculty of Cologne condemned the book as recommending unethical and illegal procedures, as well as being inconsistent with Catholic doctrines of demonology."

This seems fairly convenient given the history of witchcraft persecution in which this type of work was used as a resource. ItsMootDude (talk) 14:53, 16 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

This claim is cited in the body of the article to footnote 19. Nikkimaria (talk) 15:05, 16 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

There is a source in the page already. Here are two others:
