The Christian CongregationChristian Congregation – "The" is not needed. tahc chat 22:35, 17 July 2016 (UTC) --Relisting. Omni Flames (talk) 08:21, 26 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • Oppose. The definite article is needed to distinguish this article's topic from that of Christian congregations in general, of which this is not the only one. 64.105.98.115 (talk) 00:05, 18 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
The MOS discourages use of "The" for this purpose. Christian Congregation is clearly distinguished by Christian congregations in general by the difference in capitalization. In fact the current Christian Congregation page does not even have a disambiguation link to Local church or or any other "Christian congregations in general" type article. tahc chat 15:10, 18 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Support. Tahc is right that capitalization distinguishes it from "Christian congregations" generically, and that the MOS discourages using "the" to do this. Jujutsuan (Please notify with {{re}} talk | contribs) 18:59, 19 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

NOTE: This discusion should be moot, since I found that the bodies at Christian Congregation (Pentecostal) to be unrelated to the Christian Congregation (Restoration Movement). This makes two groups with similar/same names, and thus the even greater need to disambiguate them from each other. tahc chat 18:30, 25 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your attention to detail. I support the making the distinction clear, of course. 64.105.98.115 (talk) 12:58, 26 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
