1523 works

This is categorised as "1523 works" yet the year 1523 isn't mentioned at all. The Rambling Man (talk) 06:45, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

1522/23 is mentioned. We'll never know for sure, but this was translated. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:04, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

So it's probably better off being a Category:1520s works, right? The Rambling Man (talk) 18:26, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Then it would be 1520s in English, but 1523 in German. The Gotteslob says simply 1523. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:36, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Gerda, I'm just asking the cats to reflect the article. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:15, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It's not that easy. The main source, the book in which it appears, has one year, - just the scientists are more careful. "1520s" doesn't reflect "1523 the latest", which is important compared to Luther's 1524. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:17, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well the cat and the article should say the same thing. If there's any doubt, it should be 1520s. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:47, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The German article just says 1523. I am close to adopting that. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:47, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Whatever the RS say. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:49, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

One source says 1522/23, several say simply 1523. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:57, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

So to be safe, it's 1520s. The Rambling Man (talk) 04:34, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I worded differently. 1522/23 may mean "we don't know" or "begun in 1522, completed in 1523". The books I can see where it's printed today say simply 1523, so do I now. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:47, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
