- @Elizium23: Sorry, I"m rather new to WikiData. I just wanted to be as specific as possible because it isn't technically a church. Dmartin969 (talk) 07:27, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
It's a church; it's not a parish or parish church, but for Catholics, a church is a place with an altar where Masses are held, along with other sacraments and liturgies. A shrine is a special type (subtype) of church.Elizium23 (talk) 09:11, 16 January 2023 (UTC)- On closer inspection, the Shrine has a Chapel, and so while it is a sacred place where Masses are held, I suppose that canonically it is not considered a full-fledged church, but instead a different type of sacred place. I am not sure that Wikidata is presently equipped to handle such an exception. I plan to explore the limits of its classification systems, so stay tuned. Elizium23 (talk) 09:14, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
