Assessment
Reliability TierReliability tier 3: a Wikipedia entry, written and revised by unnamed volunteer editors, suited to an uncontested, easily checked biographical point rather than a disputed claim. NotesCrowd-sourced tertiary reference, consulted directly, 2026-08-11. Used here only for the plain, checkable facts that John Wesley was born 28 June 1703 (17 June Old Style) in Epworth and died 2 March 1791 in London, matching the atlas's own pre-existing lifespan text on his entity. The Old Style/New Style calendar difference does not move his birth year, since 17 June falls after the Julian calendar's 25 March new year. 1 Citation
