The English Wikipedia article on the World Mission Society Church of God, community edited, reporting the church's own claimed membership at different dates (about 400,000 total in 2001, 3.7 million worldwide as reported by South Korean media in 2024) alongside an independent 2017 estimate of 200,000 to 300,000 members in South Korea alone from opposing South Korean Christian denominations. Used here for all three figures, each kept attributed to its own source.

Assessment
Reliability Tier3
Reliability tier 3: a community-edited encyclopedia article, used here because it states both the church's own claimed figures (attributed to the church and to South Korean media reports of its announcements) and an independent estimate from opposing South Korean Christian denominations, with attribution kept distinct for each rather than blended into one figure.
