==Kenton Amish affiliation==
Hello Mike, Some days ago I wrote a paragraph about the "Kenton Amish affiliation" in the [[Kenton, Ohio]] article but my edit was reverted, in my view, without a real reason. Maybe the best would be to make it into a stub or short article of its own. I'm not registered and cannot create new articles. Could you please to it. I may then expand it. My text here below.

In 1953 a more conservative faction of the [[Amish]] in North-East [[Indiana]], that is the [[Elkhart-LaGrange Amish affiliation|Elkhart-LaGrange]] and [[Nappanee, Indiana|Nappanee]] Amish settlements, established a new settlement South of Kenton that became a new [[Subgroups of Amish|Amish affiliation]].<ref>[https://ideaexchange.uakron.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1117&context=amishstudies Cory Anderson: ''Of Process, Practice, and Belief: What Can We Learn about Old Amish Church History and Polity from this Special Issue’s Source Documents?'' in Journal of Amish and Plain Anabaptist Studies, Volume 7, 2019, page 103.]</ref> In 1958 it consisted of two districts (congregations).<ref>[https://gameo.org/index.php?title=Hardin_County_Old_Order_Amish_Settlement_(Kenton,_Ohio,_USA) ''Hardin County Old Order Amish Settlement (Kenton, Ohio, USA)''] at [[Global Anabaptist Mennonite Encyclopedia Online|GAMEO]].</ref> In 2010 the settlement consisted of 8 congregations<ref>[https://amishamerica.com/ohio-amish/ ''Ohio Amish''] at amishamerica.com.</ref> and in 2022 of 10 congregations with a total population of 1,155 people.

The Kenton Amish affiliation was classified in the second most conservative group that "excommunicates those joining a district considered too technologically permissive or that teaches assurance of salvation".<ref>[https://ideaexchange.uakron.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1117&context=amishstudies Cory Anderson: ''Of Process, Practice, and Belief: What Can We Learn about Old Amish Church History and Polity from this Special Issue’s Source Documents?'' in Journal of Amish and Plain Anabaptist Studies, Volume 7, 2019, page 106.]</ref> In 2011 the Kenton Amish affiliation had 13 settlements in six [[U.S. state]]s with all together 25 congregations.<ref>{{cite book|title=The Amish|last=Kraybill|first=Donald|author-link=Donald Kraybill|author2=Karen M.
