"Anglicanism" versus "Anglican".

I was very surprised by your reversal of my edit on the Robin Ward article. I believe my edit was more accurate. The term "Anglicanism" describes a Christian tradition, it is not the actual name of any "denomination". In this instance, "Church of England" is the most precise name as neither "Anglican" or "Anglicanism" are entirely correct but Anglican is less incorrect. Yahboo (talk) 03:33, 7 February 2019 (UTC)

Hi Yahboo, thank you for your message. The parameter's purpose is to list the wider tradition/denomination that that person practices rather than specific church they belong to: the |church= found higher up that infobox is where "Church of England" of would go in this specific case. As per Religious denomination, "A religious denomination is a subgroup within a religion that operates under a common name, tradition, and identity. The term refers to the various Christian denominations (for example, Eastern Orthodox, Roman Catholic, and the many varieties of Protestantism).". And as per Anglicanism, "Adherents of Anglicanism are called "Anglicans".", and so in this case the entry should read "Anglicanism" as the question the parameter is asking is "which denomination/tradition does this person practice?". Likewise, the |education= is asking "which school did they attend" rather than "what oldboy are they?" (Eton vs Old Etonian).
Things are confused further in that the the parameter is actually called |religion= but shows up as "Denomination". Another example would be someone from the Church of Scotland having Presbyterianism rather than the broader Protestantism in that parameter (Eg Colin Sinclair (minister)). The main reason |church= and |religion= are different is because they are in different sections of the infobox: |religion= is in the "Personal life" section and so is referring to that individual, while the main section is referring to their "job".
Is this a helpful explanation? Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 10:04, 7 February 2019 (UTC)
