[edit]

The name of this article should be either "Central-plan" or "Centralized-plan" churches. The current title is not unused, but the other terms are much more common and used by authoritative sources. For example, central-plan is what Britannica uses, and "centralized plan" by the Oxford Dictionary of Architecture and Landscape Architecture (2 ed.), which also speaks of "centrally planned churches". See the use of "central plan" in martyrium and transept for some Wikipedia examples. (Searches in Google for "centralized church" will also turn up documents in which "centralized plan" is actually used.) "Centralized church" also has other meanings related to organizational issues about churches as groups of people, not as architecture. For example, the first hit in Google for the quoted form of the phrase. This is therefore also not an unambiguous title. - Eponymous-Archon (talk) 23:37, 5 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
