What this means

Records whose own statements name this tradition — 1 of them. Computed from those statements, not curated here, and ordered by how widely each is linked across Wikipedia — those at home in the tradition’s collection first, and those with a picture first among the leading few — rather than by significance to the tradition.

An affiliation recorded on a person is a third party’s record, often of one period of a life — not that person’s belief at every point in it.
