Description of suggested change: Change to description of architecture_type

@R Prazeres, Jayjg, Dan9186, Chesdovi, Thivierr, Martijn Hoekstra, Pigsonthewing, Frietjes, and Worldbruce:

At present, the description of the parameters for architecture_type relate to the building's ecclesiastical or religious purpose(s), and not the building's architectural purpose(s). This item (architecture_type) sits under the Architecture sub-header. Hence, architecture_type should refer to the architecture of the building and not its religious purpose(s). The building's religious purpose(s) are best categorized under organizational_status (status and type substitute here). Hence, the use of terms such as Synagogue architecture, Mosque architecture, Hindu temple architecture, are much better aligned with the architecture_type or architectural purpose(s) of the building.

Additionally, {{Infobox religious building}} should be used for religious buildings that are not used for Christian worship. Consequently, the use of the words "Chapel, Basilica, Cathedral" are all Christian terms and best suited for {{Infobox church}} and are not applicable for use in {{Infobox religious building}}.

Diff:

−

architecture_type — what the building was originally designed to be (i.e. Chapel, Basilica, Cathedral).

+

architecture_type — what the original purpose of the building's '''architecture''' was designed to be (i.e. [[Synagogue architecture]], [[Mosque architecture]], [[Hindu temple architecture]], etc.

 Not done The requested change is to text on Template:Infobox religious building/doc, which is not protected. However, it is also clumsily worded. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 15:20, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Pigsonthewing: Hi there. What is worded clumsily? Rangasyd (talk) 09:52, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

All of: "what the original purpose of the building's architecture was designed to be". Perhaps you mean "What purpose the building originally served"? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 13:11, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I do not believe that the above edit request uses the phrase: "...what the original purpose of the building's architecture was designed to be..". Anyway, grammar aside, are you supportive or against the edit request to Template:Infobox religious building/doc? Cheers. Rangasyd (talk) 10:27, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please consider adding the following parameters, change image parameter to image 1:

{{Location map|{{{pushpin map|}}}
|label={{#ifeq: {{lc: {{{pushpin label position|}}} }} | none | | {{if empty|{{{name|}}}|{{PAGENAMEBASE}}}} }}
|alt = {{{pushpin map alt|}}}
|relief = {{{relief|}}}
|coordinates = {{{coordinates|}}}
|float = center
|caption = {{{map caption|}}}
|border = infobox
|position = {{{pushpin label position|}}}
|width = {{if empty|{{{pushpin mapsize|}}}| 250 }}
}}
}}

| image3 = {{#invoke:Infobox mapframe|auto|onByDefault={{#if:{{{pushpin map|}}}|no|yes}}|mapframe-zoom={{{mapframe-zoom|13}}}|mapframe-marker=religious-christian|mapframe-width=250|mapframe-frame-width=250|mapframe-wikidata={{{mapframe-wikidata|yes}}}}}
