Reliability of Sources

I'm wondering why the sources cited were deemed unreliable? I cited the Churches' own website which uploaded a short history that was written in 1988 and came out of the Churches' archives.

Citing the Church's own website would be considered as primary source in Wikipedia. This is considered as not reliable. You should insert sources which are independent (called third party sources), e.g. mainstream publication, newspapers or books. You could search for major christian magazines or weekly publication by the christian community to source for your submission. EROS ^message 08:04, 17 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
