A couple of quite negative articles have been published by scholars about Barton but have not been used as references. Both of the authors have acknowledged that Barton has political influence. Binksternet ( talk) 20:13, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
The word unorthodox does not give the proper connotation as a summary of the information below. The first dictionary definition that I found is "Breaking with convention or tradition; not orthodox; heterodox; heretical." This is an odd term to use for someone whose biography says is a Christian. It comes across in context a pejorative and it is an opinion or conclusion rather than a proper summary -- something stated in a reliable source in the body. -- WP:RS - WP:SYN - A synthesis is not permitted and is considered original "If one reliable source says A, and another reliable source says B, do not join A and B together to imply a conclusion C that is not mentioned by either of the sources." WP:BLP - " The burden of evidence rests with the editor who adds or restores the material." Reverting back with the statement that "the summary is fine given the context" is unhelpful @Nomoskedasticity
