(
help)There is no requirement for rigid consistency, and I take a 'horse for courses' approach myself -- using (manual) shortened references only where they are useful to cut down duplication. I see "the harv footnote calling" as an unnecessary embellishment. If you want to use them on an article you have written, then you're welcome to -- coming in solely to impose them on others who will be the ones who have the task of maintaining them is neither reasonable, nor in keeping with Wikipedia conventions.

The claim that "Its library and study center were destroyed in World War II by bombs" is clearly supported by a reliable source:
Because its library and study center were destroyed by bombs in WWII, the institute has had little recent influence on the British scene other than through its journal Faith and Thought, which published the 114th (and last) volume in 1988. Much more intense discussion of science/Christianity topics has taken place in recent years in the Research Scientists Christian Fellowship (RSCF), the organization which cosponsored with ASA/CSCA the Annual Meeting at St. Catherine's College, Oxford in 1985. RSCF has never had a formal journal and recently has joined with the Victoria Institute to cosponsor a new journal, Science and Christian Belief, which began publication in 1989 with Oliver Barclay and A. Brian Robins as coeditors. RSCF has made it a clean sweep by a name change to Christians in Science.
This piece also seems to support the claim (cited to a source not available online) that "Faith and Thought was merged" into Science and Christian Belief. Therefore, lacking a countervailing source, I am reversing these changes. I would also bring WP:COI to Ackworth's attention. Hrafn Talk Stalk( P) 18:07, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
