Request for sources, 3rd party sources, and proof of notability edit
- "A notable example of this, which has also brought the characteristics of Samaritanism to the notice of a wider public, is the essay by MD Goulder, 'The Two Roots of the Christian Myth', in the collection of essays edited by J. Hick, The Myth of God Incarnate."
- — RJ Coggins, "The Samaritans and Acts", New Testament Studies 28 (1982): 423–434.
Google scholar alone provides 145 citations for this landmark volume. The stature of the seven scholars who produced the book (six of whom are notable in their own right even by Wiki standards) is also an indicator of notability. So I'm removing the tag regarding notability, while adding sourced material from 3rd party sources to make the notability even more explicit. This book generated tremendous controversy at its time of publication, and is still cited up to the current day.
Likewise, I'm removing the request for 3rd party sources, since I've now added one (of hundreds, see Google scholar), and more will follow. There is no shortage, rather there is an abundance, which requires astute selection. Finally, since there are no statements in the stub that are likely to be challenged (as yet), I'm also removing the request for sources to verify material. Inline citations will be provided as the article grows. Alastair Haines (talk) 19:15, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
