Institutions

What this means

Records whose own statements name this tradition — 1 of them. Computed from those statements, not curated here, and ordered by how widely each is linked across Wikipedia — those at home in the tradition’s collection first, and those with a picture first among the leading few — rather than by significance to the tradition.

A ruling house that names a tradition is a family’s recorded affiliation, not its subjects’ practice; an office is a line of holders, not a family.

Imported from Wikidata. Nothing here has been read by an editor.

History

Recorded events

What Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)’s own record names in its history, in the order of the dates on the statements.

What this means

Events Wikidata records in a subject’s history, and the day a festival is kept. Not a complete history, and the day a festival falls on is not when it began. Each date is the one on the statement itself; an event with none is named after the line. It does not imply that these are all the events in its history, or that Wikidata ranks the events by importance.

Connections

How Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) connects

Grouped by the kind of relationship, because a successor is not a son and a shared symbol is not an influence.

Affiliation 2

What this means

Association with a tradition or school. Traditions branch, overlap and re-merge; this is not a clean single-origin tree.

Does not imply a fixed roster · that every account of the tradition knows this figure

Imported from Wikidata unless a tile says otherwise. Nothing here has been read by an editor.

Succession in office 2

What this means

Who held an office after whom. Not parentage, not discipleship, and not universally recognised — offices are contested.

Does not imply parentage · discipleship · an explanation of why the succession happened
