Wikipedia's community maintained article on the Eye of Providence carries no named author or peer review process behind any given version of the page, and is continuously subject to further editing. Its strength is that it documents, with citations, the eye in triangle motif's explicit use as a Late Renaissance and Baroque Christian Trinity symbol in churches and altarpieces. Its limit is that a contested claim about the symbol's later, unrelated adoption in occult or political imagery should be checked against dedicated iconographic scholarship rather than resting on this page alone.
