Ukrainian Orthodox Church
My difficulty with the inclusion of "Ukrainian Orthodox Church" was that the UOC that is in communion with the others (UOC-MP) is not distinct, or so I thought, in language from the Russian (and the context speaks of difference of language), while those that use a distinct language are, or so I thought, not in communion. You know much more about this matter than I do, so I leave it entirely in your hands. Platia (talk) 07:13, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I hope I didn't offend you in any way. I just know that "Ukrainian Orthodox" is a very commonly used term here in the states for Orthodox folks from Ukraine. In fact, I think "American Orthodox" is starting to become more commonly used, esp. for those in the OCA. The use of the terms doesn't have so much to do with autonomy, autocephaly, etc... Than it does with nationality, etc... Especially for those in countries that have Orthodoxy as their primary religion.

But as I said before, I think it has more to do with nationality/ethnicity than actually belonging to a specific church. --OrthoArchitectDU (talk) 12:10, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Orthodox Catholic Church
I realize I should've posted this earlier. I wish to thank you for your post in that discussion, it was good to see someone who was willing to accept "Orthodox Catholic Church" as an article title after so many oppositions. Although "Orthodox Church" is not a bad article title, it seems to imitate what happened at "Roman Catholic" to "Catholic Church" (which in my opinion was done by ignoring the disambiguation policy) and it will probably indirectly encourage other articles to ignore wiki naming policy, and I think this should've been rather avoided. Of course, you can support whatever option you wish, in case you participate in that debate. Cody7777777 (talk) 10:57, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
