@Yo.dazo:The problem is that differently from German, Dutch and French terminology, the English Term "hall church" marks two different types of church buildings, aisled churches with equal heights of nave and aisles (as in this article), but also large aisleless churches. In descriptions provided by Historic Environment in Scotland, I fond the term applied for three aisleless churches, but nowhere for an aisled church.--Ulamm (talk) 13:07, 9 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Ulamm I understand the confusion, but we are not in a position to redefine or revise these established terms. However, this issue does need clarification—perhaps it can go in an additional paragraph in the introduction. Yo.dazo (talk) 13:40, 9 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
