“Church Building” vs “Church” edit

It seems to be that, simply, “church” would be term for this in common use, and that the addition of “building” is an attempt at disambiguation.

That practice is inelegant-it compromises the data to make up for problems with the user interface. I won’t change anything now, but I wish we’d have better ways to deal with such problems. Karl Oblique (talk) 16:44, 9 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

building constructed for Christian worship edit

This formulation corresponds to the German one. There is no need to replace the word "worship" by the clumsy term "religious activities" --- greetings Hans G. Oberlack (talk) 22:37, 1 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
