Reference for Maoz-Henderson religion data/code #10

Description

@philip-schrodt

The data set and codebook are here:

http://www.correlatesofwar.org/data-sets/world-religion-data

I'd add a couple more categories, e.g. Tibetan to Buddhism, maybe Mormon and Pentecostal to Christian (also not clear why Anglican is a separate category), probably a "New religious movements", category, and a couple more "Other" categories, but otherwise that looks about right, and isn't that different than Wikipedia (albeit Wikipedia gets a few NRMs whose rituals/outreach apparently involves writing Wikipedia entries). Maoz-Henderson codes look pretty much like ours anyway, so we could modify those slightly. Gets us something more workable than CAMEORCS and more systematic than ICEWS.
