V-Tog added as Assistant Pastor (and description for Associate and Assistant Pastor changed)
MCSH added as Clerical Communications Secretary

Also please note that a new page for information about minors and parents has been written and the FaQ updated accordingly:
http://www.templeofthejediorder.org/component/content/article/40-information/2104-information-for-youth-members-and-parents
http://www.templeofthejediorder.org/faq#RulesforMinors
This is part of a long process of shortening the FaQ by concentrating more information on specific and more easy-to-read pages.

I have consolidated every Youth FaQ into the new Youth FaQ: http://www.templeofthejediorder.org/component/content/article/40-information/2107-youth-faq which has cut down on a lot of words and should make it easier to find all of the Youth info.
Edited this page a little: http://www.templeofthejediorder.org/ordermembership by combining some stuff with the Oath article: http://www.templeofthejediorder.org/component/content/article/40-information/2078-the-oaths-of-temple-of-the-jedi-order

Clerical ranks faq was removed. Clergy faq title was edited to include mention of clerical ranks, which now links to the clergy article: http://www.templeofthejediorder.org/clergy
Because I do not currently have proper access to a computer several articles have formatting errors I cannot fix (because for some reason my table is unable to view the html code version of the articles), I will fix them when I get the chance.
I am also looking into getting rid of the 'Don't the clerical offices sound awfully catholic' faq too. Probably mention it in the clery article. EDIT I just did exactly that

FAQ 24: Rules: Links and Linking:
Original wrote: If you want to post a funny video, use the appropriate section (humour). Found a good source of information or an e-book then post it in an appropriate place and or notify the Librarian. You should be able to find an appropriate sub forum for anything you wish to post. If you’re unsure about the suitability of a link then please ask a senior member (Knight or higher) for advice. If you wish to post a link to your own site or a sales site then get permission from an administrator.
There really is no 'limit' on the number of links, however generally the material linked to is the property and expressions of the original artist. It may very well communicate your feelings or thoughts however, continued linking and abuse of the ability is frowned upon. If it gets excessive enough we may ask you to refrain from making links. We appreciate the message being sent but there is always room for interpretation and would really prefer for members to use their own words and descriptions.
Blatant spam however will be deleted if it is found on the site (with the possibility of your account being blocked).
If you are unsure of whether or not a post or link is suitable or not please don't hesitate to ask a senior member or above (Knight and higher) for advice. The Miscellaneous Forum is considered an 'anything' goes area. But if the post, or material, could be considered 'adult' then please make this clear in the title (eg. 'WARNING 18 RATED).
Here are some simple rules of thumb to abide by: if you think it could offend then it probably will or if you think whether or not you would be happy for an 8 year old child (your own or a relative etc) to see/hear the material then don’t post it
This is a family and public forum so please keep this in mind.
One extra note however, pornography will not be tolerated in anyway shape or form.
