[edit] Schaff teference

Schaff is an excellent resource and public domain. But as it is available on the net, it might be better to link to it - just a suggestion.

[edit] Info at [1]

A lot of information at http://16.1911encyclopedia.org/Z/ZW/ZWINGLI.htm not used. --OldakQuill 17:37, 10 May 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Can s/o compare Calvin & Zwingli - not just Zwingli & Luther

Both John Calvin and Ulrich Zwingli contributed to the Reformed Churches so some analysis would be of value. Paul foord 08:41, 14 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] doctor biblicus

I can guess what this means, but it might be better to explain it. The immediate searches I get on it are in the exact same context and give me no more confidence in my guess, otherwise I would update. John (Jwy) 23:20, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merging "Theology: sacraments and covenants (Zwingli versus Luther)" with "Theology of Zwingli" article

I am against it. It seems like there should be mention of Zwinglian sacramantology in this article, as this part of his legacy is quite notable. Notthe9 16:23, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

I agree that this article should have at least a summary of Zwingli's view and how it differs from the other Reformers' views, and I don't think the merge would remove all mention of his theological legacy. The article on Zwingli's theology can and should cover it in greater depth, however. --Flex 19:17, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] marriage date conflict

Ulrich Zwingli's wedding date is April 2, 1524 at Wikipedia and other sources but is July 2, 1524 in Catholic Encyclopedia and a few others.

This wedding was announced publicly on one of these dates.

It would be nice to find actually document of announcement or some logical explanation of the difference. Daytrivia 01:55, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Zwingli and politics

I know nothing about this topic, and the sedond paragraph of this sectoin is confusing. It sounds like it was written in the jargon of serious protestent discourse.

I am going to attempt a "layman's" rewrite. If my rewrite is mistaken, please attempt a better one.

[edit] Clarification

The material from the Catholic Encyclopedia linked at the bottom of the article states that Zwingli was the third of eight sons and the top section of the article claims that he was the seventh of eight. Someone should get this page to agree with itself. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.186.133.125 (talk) 17:51, 10 February 2007 (UTC).
