- Canonization was the elevation of a person to a saintly status. Shortly before the Battle of Cardassia in 2375, major Kira Nerys answered Damar and Garak's praise of her essential role in the establishment of the Cardassian Liberation Front by telling him to not canonize her yet. (DS9: "What You Leave Behind")
- Canonization (or canonisation) is the act by which a particular Christian church declares a deceased person to be a saint and is included in the canon, or list, of recognized saints. Originally, individuals were recognized as saints without any formal process. Canonization, whether formal or informal, does not make someone a saint: it is only a declaration that the person is a saint and was a saint even before canonization.

- Canonization (or canonisation) is the act by which a particular Christian church declares a deceased person to be a saint and is included in the canon, or list, of recognized saints. Originally, individuals were recognized as saints without any formal process. In the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Catholic Churches in communion with Rome, the act of canonization is reserved to the Holy See and occurs at the conclusion of a long process requiring extensive proof that the person proposed for canonization lived and died in such an exemplary and holy way that he or she is worthy to be recognized as a saint. The church's official recognition of sanctity implies that the persons are now in heavenly glory, that they may be publicly invoked and mentioned officially in the liturgy of the church, most especially in the Litany of the Saints in the Canon of the Mass. Other Christian churches still follow the older practice (see, for instance, below on Eastern Orthodox practice). Canonization, whether formal or informal, does not make someone a saint: it is only a declaration that the person is a saint and was a saint even before canonization.
