I also wondered about that addition, which I find completely useless. A park
or garden around a church or temple is a leisure=park or leisure=garden in
the first place. A religious school is an amenity=school. A dormitory is
(part of) a landuse=residential. You can always add a religion=* tag to
these features. But religion is really not a landuse.

Therefore, I suggest removing landuse=religion from the wiki, or at least to
mark it as nonsensical.
