I think the question is; depending on which way you look at it, too broad a question or too narrow a topic to cover...

My understanding has always been the Wahhabis were formed based on Salafi ideology among the past 200 or so years, but the Salaf have always been around. Even if you look at the salafi now, they are split into various groups, Ikhwaanis, Hizbis, Madhkalie etc

Whereas Wahabis are probably the quickest ones to call anything haram or shirk.
