List of the largest evangelical churchesList of the largest Protestant church buildingsWP:PRECISE by WP:NATURALDISAMBIGUATION to distingush from List of the largest Protestant denominations. Cf. Church (building). Clearly includes premises beyond what's commonly referred to as Evangelical, but also Protestant in a broader sense. PPEMES (talk) 17:31, 31 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If so, what about List of the largest Evangelical Protestant denominations for WP:PRECISE reasons? PPEMES (talk) 19:47, 2 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I'm asking a serious, sincere question: are you aware of what a church is? It is a group of people who regularly assemble in a specific place in order to worship God. Denominations are groups of like-minded churches from different parts of the world. Red Slash 17:58, 5 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Why is "the" in there in the first place? It's completely unnecessary and not our usual practice. See Category:Lists of churches. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:07, 4 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. It does not appear that the weekly attendance listed in this article reflects the number of seats in the building. Rather, it is more likely the number of people who attend services held in the building over the course of a week. A congregation able to fill 10,000 seats that holds ten services per week will have as many people come through as a congregation able to fill 20,000 seats that holds five services per week. bd2412 T 03:08, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
What about "denominations", then? PPEMES (talk) 13:55, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

List of the largest evangelical churchesList of largest evangelical denominations – "The" was opposed but without conclusion above. So was the fact that not all entries involved self-define as "churches". Indeed not confined to "megachurches", individual church buildings or other such entites, as oddly asserted above.

Hillsong Australia has 43000 weekly attendance

Seldom counted ...

[edit]

In the data accuracy section the statement was made the attendance is seldom counted.

I added a citation needed on that statement, wanting to know where that statement came from.

In several churches I have attended there is one of the ushers at the door with a "click counter" (see People counter and search result URL below) counting people as they enter the building.
