- Yes! I'm sure many of these are highly ambiguous, especially allowing for different languages and styles (Saint vs St. etc)! For example the Church of St. Mary of Blachernae was a very important historical church in Constantinople (not so much left now). As the article says, the Albanian St. Mary of Blachernae Church (Berat) was named after it. We have a disam page for Cathedral Basilica of St James the Apostle, which stupidly doesn't mention what is by far the most famous one - Santiago de Compostela Cathedral. That alone makes Catedral Santiago Apóstol, Catedral Santiago Apóstol, Cathedral Basilica of St. James also ambiguous. Please DON'T make any changes without careful research.

- @Johnbod: That's why I'm asking the question. BD2412 T 02:44, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- Well, you have your answer. Johnbod (talk) 02:47, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- St Augustine's Abbey (disambiguation) is another long page, to which St. Augustine's Monastery should redirect. Most of these, outside North America at least, should be using "Saint" not the American "St.", & if you want something useful to do there's are lots of redirects & disam work needed. Johnbod (talk) 02:54, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- I agree that there should be more standardisation to "Saint" in the names of churches which don't have WP:STRONGTIES to a particular English-speaking country. It would also be helpful if the titles of disambiguation pages had "Saint" as the default, with the "St." and "St" variants redirecting there as a matter of course.
- Regarding the base page titles in the list above, I think the following ones should redirect to disambiguation pages (not all of which may have the best titles at the moment):
- Catedral Santiago Apóstol and Cathedral Church of St. James – redirect to Cathedral of Saint James
- Cathedral Basilica of St. James – redirect to Cathedral Basilica of Saint James
- Cathedral of Mary of the Assumption – redirect to Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Assumption
- Cathedral of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus – redirect to Sacred Heart Cathedral
- Catholic Church of Our Lady – redirect to Church of Our Lady
- Christ's Church Cathedral – possibly redirect to Christ Church Cathedral
- Holy Rosary Parish Church – redirect to Holy Rosary Church
- Saint Francis de Sales Cathedral – redirect to Cathedral of Saint Francis de Sales
- St. Benedict the Moor Church – redirect to Church of Saint Benedict the Moor
- St. John Cantius Church – possibly create a new Church of Saint John Cantius disambiguation page, as there are two of these with articles
- St. Mary, Our Lady of Mount Carmel Cathedral – redirect to Our Lady of Mount Carmel Cathedral
- St. Michael's Cathedral Basilica – possibly redirect to Cathedral of Saint Michael
- St. Monica Catholic Church – redirect to Saint Monica's Church
- St. Nicholas of Myra Church – redirect to Saint Nicholas Church
- St. Thomas's Anglican Church – possibly redirect to Saint Thomas Church
- Ste. Marie Church – possibly redirect to Saint Mary's Church

- Thanks - this all seems sensible. Johnbod (talk) 15:39, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- I would certainly encourage the creation of redirects to disambiguation pages wherever appropriate, so that these redlinks are not mistaken by other editors for unoccupied base page names to which disambiguated titles should be moved. BD2412 T 23:47, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks - this all seems sensible. Johnbod (talk) 15:39, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- There appear to be multiple cathedrals of St. James, cathedrals of St. Mary, etc, in this list. The full names for the articles (with city/country addre) are appropriate to avoid ambiguity as to which cathedral/basilica is being referenced in an article. –Zfish118⋉talk 15:19, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

Vital article Split of Christianity and Judaism needs help
editHello!
I started Split of Christianity and Judaism in February. It is more than a one-person job, and I haven't been able to contribute significantly to it in months. This is an important article, and I'd love to see it improved.
Thanks! Zanahary (talk) 02:05, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

This was a redirect to catechesis, but that didn't really seem appropriate as catechesis is not a term used by many Christians who are evangelical or non-liturgical protestants. Additionally catechesis typically ends with baptism, and many Christians perceive Christian education as a life long endeavor that has no ending point. For the time being I turned it into a disambiguation page.
If asked many Christians would connect Christian education to Bible Study in various forms such as cell groups or Sunday School. Additionally Christian education, would also include seminaries, Christian education institutions such as Christian universities, etc. There are undergraduate and graduate degrees in Christian Education, and various journals devoted to Christian education such as the Journal of Research on Christian Education and Christian Education Journal (both SAGE journals) among others. This is a topic that deserves a wide scope treatment, and should be a core high priority article of this WikiProject. I hope someone will take the time to create a broad view article that encompasses the full scope of Christian education across diverse Christian denominations.

Proofread request
editI am working on an article for The Signpost, set to be published on the 28th, that covers a topic on Wikipedia which involves Christianity. Once it's finished, could someone review it briefly? I'm not seeking assistance with the content itself. However, I would like to ensure it doesn't unintentionally contain any offensive material, such as tropes or dog whistles which I'm unaware of. So far, I don't think it has the potential to cause offense, but I would appreciate a specialist perspective on it in case I've missed anything. Please reply to this and I will send the final draft through EmailUser when I'm finished. Svampesky (talk) 20:11, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Svampesky: Sure! ~ 21:22, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
Edits to OneHope Pages
editHI Team, We have been trying to update on OneHope Wiki Pages but have received pushback because of the Evangelical nature of the business. Do you have any advice on how to get the updates made and approved?
Here is the current page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OneHope
I have currently put in a request for a portion to be edited via the talk page but the notice I received said it could take 160+ days. We are hoping that someone can help us move this forward quicker. Aimeeluongo (talk) 14:40, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
