2021 Is After 2014

[edit]

Let me try to explain this to whatever editor reverted the necessary change I made to this article. The article indicates that Fred Shapiro expressed support for Wygal as the author of the Serenity Prayer, but later backed away from that support. That is just not accurate. Shapiro's article that backed away from support was published in 2014. Shapiro's final word on the subject was in the New Yale Book of Quotations. The New Yale Book of Quotations was published in 2021. Shapiro's final conclusion was one of strong support for Wygal's claim. The best way to correct this point in the Wygal article is to delete the final sentence of the paragraph in question. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:192:7f:1bd0:4533:f9bd:1931:477a (talk) 22:41, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your explanation. 2021 is indeed after 2014; the paragraph has been changed to reflect this chronology as you rightly point out. Penny Richards (talk) 01:21, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
