Grammar - an order is still an order

The article is incorrect in its use and understanding of grammar, confusing between or conflating concepts and words: order, award, medal, membership.

Order is still a group of people.

An order of merit is the group of people who are given membership to it for some merit.

One is awarded membership in an order (due to some meritorious action or whatever) and one probably receives a medal or star or physical object representing one’s membership. 178.197.229.68 (talk) 07:10, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
