This should be converted to wrapper of {{Infobox religious building}} per WP:INFOCOL. Capankajsmilyo(Talk | Infobox assistance) 12:15, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
- There is almost no overlap in this table. Please stop spamming these tables into infobox talk pages. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:08, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
- 14 common fields, and countless different ones? Yes, this is even worse than Template talk:Infobox comics creator#Convert to wrapper, where the same is proposed with the same "arguments" (defended by a notorious proponent of these merges or conversions, who claims that linking to that essay is enough when someone asks for arguments). In that case, there were no less than 20 common fields, against 36 comics parameters missing in the person one. Apparently that makes them an obvious case for merging? Fram (talk) 15:10, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
- IMHO the table is useful, it makes a cast-iron argument for not attempting to fuse the two. Martin of Sheffield (talk) 15:13, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

- How is responding directly to a thread even remotely canvassing. The table illustrates that there is very little commonality between the two templates, which in my opinion indicates that persuing this is a waste of time and effort. Martin of Sheffield (talk) 15:21, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
- I'm generally in favor of merging templates, especially infobxes, when it is reasonable and feasible to do so. Right now, I think there's too little overlap between Church and religious building, but I would support a longer-term project to bring the two together. Ergo Sum 15:47, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

to Template:Infobox church/font color to make the font color white (and legible) on Saint Mark's Coptic Orthodox Cathedral (Alexandria) and other coptic churches. – Thjarkur (talk) 10:33, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
- The required formatting is currently "[[Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria|Coptic Orthodox]]": I've changed the cathedral to show this.

Template:Infobox church → Template:Infobox church building – WP:PRECISION. PPEMES (talk) 11:36, 22 March 2020 (UTC)
- @PPEMES: I believe this discussion has been had already (see here). The infobox covers not just the physical building but the administration and history of the church itself. Even if it were just about the building, "church" is sufficiently common as a shorthand for "church building" that moving the template just isn't warranted. Therefore, I must oppose. Ergo Sum 14:54, 22 March 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose - I see no reason why we can't instead propose at WP:TFD that this be merged with Template:Infobox religious building. -- Netoholic @ 15:02, 22 March 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose - The template contains much more that just architectural features. Changing its name or moving it to Infobox religious building would cause significant disruption to most church articles for no apparent gain. See Frietjes' point in the previous discussion linked to by Ergo Sum.
- Oppose for now with a big BUT - this template's use has a lot of WP:Avoid template creep. I would like to see a template that is strictly for a church building and all of the parish community-related things separated out of here. Let's merge this with Infobox religious building and split out the non-architectural bits to an "Infobox parish" or something. There is no reason that articles can't have two infoboxes.

Street maps
I have added mapframe maps using the same syntax as Template:Infobox building. these maps will be off by default if there is already a pushpin map, but will turn on if possible if there is no other map. if this is controversial, we can the mapframe street map turned off by default. thank you!

Is there a way to deconflate church building and church congregation?
We conflate church building and church congregation - as we do not do here, say Template:Infobox_legislature, as eg here: Parliament of the United Kingdom, which is about the organisation; with a link, clearly, to here Palace of Westminster; the building where the meetings happen. This distorts articles - for example the article on All Souls Church, Langham Place, which is notable for far more than its building, but we make it hard for ourselves by concentrating on the building. Or, here: The Vineyard Life Church, Richmond where our confusion of building and congregation leads to the ludicrous statement that Harold Wilson attended the Vineyard church and Tony Benn was a parishoner! I guess we could use the generic Template:Infobox organization as here: King's Church Catford, but that is not really suitable (nor would this template, as the church is multi-site).
Am I treading old ground here? Has there ever been a Template:Infobox_church_building or a Template:Infobox_church_congregation?
Regards and best wishes to all,
Springnuts (talk) 11:34, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
- I'm pretty sure there's been some discussion of this in the past but I haven't looked for it. The problem is that for many churches (maybe the vast majority), it doesn't make sense and doesn't satisfy notability rules to have separate Wikipedia pages for the church and its building because most churches (at least in some major denominations) have only one building. Having more than one infobox per page is just unsightly, so this infobox captures both aspects: the architectural features of the building and organizational features of the congregation. If there is a building that exists only as a building and does not have a congregation, I'd think Template:Infobox religious building would work just fine. Ergo Sum 16:01, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
Inserting furnishings, help
I have tried to add the category "Organ" under the information about Bells, but don't appear to have done it correctly. Is anyone able to see what I have done wrong and correct it for me please?— Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.214.70.234 (talk • contribs) 21:57, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

Church of the Faroe Islands
Not essential, but would it be possible to add Church of the Faroe Islands to lutheran denomination. I am in the progress of making a list of church buildings in the Faroe Islands, and it just seems slightly off that the infobox for the national churches are the same color as those of the Plymouth Brethren. Thanks. Kaffe42 (talk) 21:13, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
Adventism and Congregationalism
I propose we expand the Seventh day Adventism color to include all Millerite and Adventist churches. They are a group of churches with a similar history, while the Seventh day is limited to a specific church.
I also propose we add Congregationalism to the Presbyterian / Reformed color since it is part of the reformed tradition.

Presbyterian Church in Canada
Would it be possible to add the Presbyterian Church in Canada to "Presbyterian, Reformed"? Richiepip (talk) 02:34, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
Pastor
The entry for "pastor" should be higher in the display order, near "priestincharge". It should certainly be higher than "priest" and "asstpriest".

Please could somebody add ecclesiastical region to this infobox? I understand that it would only apply in 5 or so countries, but I still feel it would be useful within those countries. Thank you! Vesuvio14 (talk) 11:22, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
Not done for now: This is actually a controversial edit, so you'll need to discuss first with other editors. Please open a new section here and start a discussion.

Reorder parameters
With the recent edit on St. Patrick's Cathedral (Midtown Manhattan), adding |deanery=
, I noticed that the parameters in the Administration section are listed in ascending order of hierarchy, while the parameters in the adjacent Clergy section are listed in descending order. It only makes sense that we should be consistent in how we order hierarchy within the template. My own view is that descending order is better, and so I propose to reorder the parameters in the Administration section accordingly, e.g. Archdiocese above Deanery, etc. Ergo Sum 13:40, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
- I very much support this idea. It doesn't make sense to have them in different orders and could be confusing. I also feel that you are correct about the order to put them in. Vesuvio14 (talk) 19:22, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
Addition of ecclesiastical region
I feel that it would be beneficial to add the parameter of ecclesiastical region to this Infobox. I am aware that the division is only used in about 5 countries but I feel that it would make it much easier to navigate articles within these countries. What are other people's thoughts? Vesuvio14 (talk) 19:19, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
- I like the idea. It wouldn't be the most common parameter, but I'm a maximalist for such things. ~ Pbritti (talk) 14:13, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Vesuvio14: and @Pbritti:, I also like the idea of showing ecclesiastical region where it's applicable, but we don't need another parameter in the info box to do that. Just indicate the region after the episcopal conference to which the particular church belongs. Using my home archdiocese (Boston) as an example, the entry "United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), Region I" does the job. That way, the additional entry is not "in the way" in the overwhelming majority of dioceses and other particular churches to which it does not apply.
- @Norm1979: That can get a bit confusing in countries outside the US. In Italy, for example, each region has a name rather than a number- e.g. Campania- so it couldn’t be written the same way. Vesuvio14 (talk) 21:34, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Vesuvio14:, do you really think that an entry of the form "Italian Episcopal Conference, Campania Region" would be confusing? It seems pretty clear to me.... Norm1979 (talk) 01:28, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Norm1979: The only reason that might be confusing is that the ecclesiastical regions do not necessarily align with the actual regions of Italy, even though most have the same names. Therefore, a reader of the article may believe this refers to the administrative region of Campania rather than the ecclesiastical region, and thus misunderstand the location of the church. Vesuvio14 (talk) 08:04, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Vesuvio14:, okay, then how about the form "Italian Episcopal Conference, Campania Ecclesiastical Region" where the ecclesiastical region does not align with the civil administrative region? Norm1979 (talk) 13:01, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Norm1979: That could work as a solution, but I would still be in favour overall of adding a new parameter as I do not feel this would "get in the way" in other cases. If the consensus is otherwise then I feel this would be the natural option, though. Vesuvio14 (talk) 13:30, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Vesuvio14:, a good solution that we can implement today often is better than a perfect solution some time down the road. The best way to proceed probably is to add the ecclesiastical region to the entry for the episcopal conference for now so the information will be there. It will be an easy edit to move it to a new tag if/when a new tag becomes available.
- JTOL, this info box obviously affects the Wikipedia articles on dioceses of several other denominations so the Wiki project teams for those denominations obviously will want to have a say and may be the source of major objection to your proposal. It really might not be worth the effort to pursue it further, but I'll leave that decision to you. Norm1979 (talk) 23:28, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Norm1979: Good point about the other Wiki Project teams. I'll follow your suggestion for now and if any other input arises then we can take it from there. Thank you! Vesuvio14 (talk) 11:39, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Vesuvio14:, BTW, if you want to get fancy, you can put a "break" tag (<br>) before the region so the region will appear on the line below the episcopal conference rather than as a continuation of the same line. Norm1979 (talk) 16:12, 21 June 2022 (UTC)

Episcopal Conference
@Norm1979: I've just realised that there isn't even a parameter for episcopal conference. Would you suggest one be added to fix the problem above? Vesuvio14 (talk) 15:46, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Vesuvio14:, let's think this through. AFAIK, "episcopal conferences" exist by that title only in the Catholic Church, but other denominations have equivalent national or regional units (provinces in the Anglican Communion, patriarchates in the Orthodox Communion, etc.). The best solution would be a generic tag applicable to all denominations that have national or regional units. Perhaps "National/Regional Unit" would work? Or has this gotten to the point that there's a need for a separate info box template for the dioceses and equivalent jurisdictions of each denomination so that each denomination can use its own titles? Here, I'm also thinking about a recent suggestion by an Anglican contributor to adopt "Assistant Bishops" (which actually is the term used in the Roman Missal) as the tag for what the Anglican Communion has historically called "Suffragan Bishops" and the Catholic Church has historically called "Auxiliary Bishops" -- and that's far from the only instance in which denominations use different terminology for the same thing and the same terminology for different things.
- Or perhaps we seriously need to rethink what information should be in an info box in the first place. Some of the info boxes seem to have become way too big. The adage that "less is more" comes to mind. An info box typically should contain only the most basic facts. Norm1979 (talk) 19:34, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
- My 2c: I think adding some extra parameters is no problem, technically. There are already some 13 administration parameters (see list in #Preparations). Nor is it a problem that they might be used only in a few instances. Much more important is: they be used correctly wrt their meaning (semantics). And this correct usage is more easy without the editor having to study documentation (description, definition explainer, requiring verbose input, which words to use IF such and so OR ELSE ...: ouch). Instead, it is nicely inviting to do it right when one is named like
|episcopal ...=
; and when a church administration does not have something "episcopal" at all, skipping is obvious. Also, it is easy to find a to the point lefthand label text (for us here). - IOW, if you could solve it naturally with one or three extra parameters, which would they be? And please, always state what the lefthand labeltext (link) should be. -DePiep (talk) 20:07, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

- I personally agree that it is best to be specific and capture the exact meanings. I know that episcopal conference would be the correct Catholic tag and province for Anglicanism, and User:Norm1979 has said that patriarchates apply in the Orthodox Communion. These would cover the three largest, but I don’t know what terms are used for others. In any case, I feel it is best to be specific and accurate. Vesuvio14 (talk) 21:06, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

to prepare the sandbox version
- Request reopened, new code now in the /sandbox.
- Please replace all code in {{Infobox church}} with all sandbox code from {{Infobox church/sandbox}} (diff).
- Changes: per OP request: added new parameter
|episcopal conference=
, reordered all 16 entries in Administrations. - Also: renumbered entries ('|data123=') in the infobox; completified incomplete '|header=' checklists (
|autoheader=y
doesn't work with the |header={{{embedded|}}} construct). - Changes arelogged in section #Preparing below.
- Consensus: The sandbox is an implementation of the reasonable order-request; worked in cooperation with OP Vesuvio14.
- Tests: Template:Infobox church/testcases § Administrations (Jun 2022), also previewed the /sandbox in live articles.
- Todo: Documentation to be adjusted post-edit (add the parameter, present the Admin section in new order). Inviting Vesuvio14 for this follow up.

- I think the change wrt
|episcopalarea=
(now in label101) can be improved. Also re its previous version. See #Episcopal area DAB below (as a new development). @Vesuvio14 and Paine Ellsworth: -DePiep (talk) 06:51, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
Episcopal area DAB
- About
|episcopalarea=
and Episcopal area (DAB). The (lefthand) label101 text shows "Episcopal area", possibly DAB-linked. I think the linking can be more tot the point. Before the Jul 1 edit, there were more variants covered.
- Question: how and when can the 'Episcopal area' label best be linked?
- To test: by
|denomination=
, differentiating between the DAB pages: - Episcopal area (disambiguation) has DAB list:
- Episcopal area (Anglicanism)
- Episcopal area (United Methodist Church)
- Episcopal conference [Episcopal conference (Catholic)]
- If not one ofg these, don't link: "Episcopal area" or lin to Episcopal area (disambiguation)?
- Also: existing List, used for colors. Church of Ireland, Church of England, Scottish Episcopal Church, ... all → BC50A5
- To test: by
- Test setup
- {{Infobox church/sandbox}} demo version [1]. Shows three output forms for a single
|denomination=
,|episcopalarea=anytext
input (named 107, 108, 109). - See {{/testcases}}.
- Aims
- Catches (=presenting the right text/link) should be as wide as possible. eg,
- A=a;
- independent of [[..]] brackets entered,
- For '(United Methodist Church)', catch all applicable church denominations etc.
- So, question for @Vesuvio14 and Norm1979:: can the denomination recognising & colorcoding in this list be used? That is: are all denominations with the same color code be linked to the same E.E. page? For example, the label all methodist churches: #CC6666 to be linked to Episcopal area (United Methodist Church)? That would make things very easy!
- -DePiep (talk) 07:09, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
Just on this, episcopal area should not be used for Catholicism, it is simply a misnomer for episcopal conference. I have also amended the link on the DAB page for the section to which the Anglican lo entry links as it was not quite right, meaning I missed information. If this could work, it would be a very good way of doing things! Vesuvio14 (talk) 07:19, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
- I don't get what you say. Please be as specific as can be. I assume:
- 1.
|episcopal area=
not in combination with|denomination=.. Cathocic ..
, instead use|episcopal conference=
. All right. - 2. "amended the link on the DAB"? [2] then.
- 1.
- Now please go back to the question. -DePiep (talk) 07:28, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
Sorry, yes that is what I mean in point one, and my changing the DAB page is irrelevant anyway. Vesuvio14 (talk) 07:35, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
Time for a purge
The entire Laity section needs to go. This template has accrued so many minor, unnecessary parameters over the years, and it is long overdue that they be purged. All infoboxes are required to contain only basic, essential information. That's why any organizational infobox generally contains only the leader of the institution and maybe the number two person. Here, we have countless parameters for minor figures. We even have a "student intern" parameter! This is totally unnecessary and even inappropriate. Ergo Sum 15:06, 24 November 2022 (UTC)

A better target for "Dedication" would instead be Dedication of churches, which was split from Dedication in 2021.
(Plus, Dedication is now a disambiguation page, the old page having been moved to Dedication (ritual) per a recent move request.)
Therefore, I suggest changing this:

Should nave width include the aisles?
The documentation doesn't make it clear whether the nave width should include or exclude any aisles that the church may have. Some articles, such as Worcester Cathedral, exclude the aisles, while some, like Lichfield Cathedral, include them. I think consistency would be nice whenever possible, and clarification in the docs might encourage that. Or, perhaps the template should encourage contributors to specify whether the measurement includes aisles or not. Eishiya (talk) 00:01, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
