The Wikipedia article on the World Communion of Reformed Churches, reporting that its full member denominations claim about 100 million members combined as of 2017, against the World Christian Encyclopedia's independent 2020 count of 60 million members among the communion's Reformed and Presbyterian denominations specifically, excluding the United and Uniting Churches also counted in the full membership figure.
Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier3
Tertiary reference compiling two named figures against each other, the World Communion of Reformed Churches' own claimed total and the World Christian Encyclopedia's independent 2020 count, rather than either primary source directly; the same one-remove standing already given to the parallel Methodism divergence elsewhere in this file. NotesUsed for the WARC and REC founding years, their relative size, and the combined membership figure.
