Baptism/Baptismal tank

[edit]

User:Tony Holkham I prefer Baptism tank, but most editors use Baptismal tank, which may well be correct. What do you think?SovalValtos (talk) 08:45, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think either is incorrect, but I would normally use the word "pool". The word "tank" suggests something made for the purpose, whereas before they became commonplace Baptism by full immersion was often effected in a pool in a river. However, the citation in this case uses the word "tank". Tony Holkham (Talk) 09:26, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
