A non-neutral PoV?

"The Martyrs Mirror is still a beloved book among Amish and Mennonites."

Is beloved an appropriate word for Wikipedia?

Also, why does the book's name lack an apostrophe (Martyrs' Mirror)? The article doesn't explain that.-- Adûnâi ( talk) 20:01, 1 January 2017 (UTC) reply

The explanation is doubtless because apostrophisation was not yet standard for possessives in English in the 1600s. Neither was American English; and Wikipedia seems unduly addicted to doing that, too. Nuttyskin ( talk) 02:09, 4 July 2018 (UTC) reply
