Regarding the suggestion that the entry on "Third Order" be merged with this one, my own view is that this would not be appropriate, as there are many Third Orders besides the Franciscan one, which would contradict the meaning of the article. Also the resulting page would be too clunky. Daniel the Monk (talk) 20:13, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
Much of the text on the "Third Order" page is duplicated on the page devoted to the Franciscan Third Order. It doesn't need to be in the more general article. But it makes no sense to direct people interested in the Dominican Third Order - let alone Lutheran Third Orders - to the Franciscan Third Order article. The detail of the Franciscan article is good for an article about a specific movement - if anything, I want more (what the heck is the *name* of the organised part of it? Official name, I mean) - but inappropriate for an overview article, which "Third Order" otherwise is.
The two articles serve two different purposes. Shrink the general one by getting rid of the overlap; don't trash it, and don't bury the rest of the overview under the flood of data about the Franciscans.
