What do the values mean?

@Władysław Komorek: could you define what the different values mean? (Pisanie po polsku jest w porządku, jeśli angielski jest trudny.) --Jeisenbe (talk) 07:36, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

+1 .

Also, whose classification system is this? Is it an official classification of the Catholic Church in Poland, or has it been developed by mappers? (Google: Poza tym, czyj to system klasyfikacji? Czy jest to oficjalna klasyfikacja Kościoła katolickiego w Polsce, czy też została opracowana przez osoby redagujące mapę?) eteb3 (talk) 08:14, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

Please add definitions which explain what it means for a church to be a "cmentarny" (Cemetery) for example - in English a "cemetery" is a large area filled with graves where dead human bodies are buried. Is this a chapel which is used for funeral, or an actual place of worship which has mass / worship services? What is a church:type=hospital (szpitalny)? In English a Hospital is a large medical center which provides inpatient care to serious ill people or people who just had surgery and need to stay overnight under nurse supervision. How does this related to a Christian place of worship? Is this like a chapel in a hospital which is operated by the Roman Catholic church of Poland? What does filial (filialny) mean? The wikipedia article says "A filial church, in the Roman Catholic Church, is a church to which is annexed the cure of souls, but which remains dependent on another church. The term comes from the Latin filialis, from filia, “daughter” - this does not make much sense to me as a protestant. So please provide some more detailed explanations, so mappers in other countries and other cultures will know when to use these tags in their own context. --Jeisenbe (talk) 06:48, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
