I do not think this page or its category warrant creation. "Advisor" is anyone who gives recommendations on future actions, I do not think it is a specific rank so much as a general and interchangeable position like "aide". As well, it is based almost entirely on Revolutionary-era French Templars, just like the Lieutenants page which I also feel questionable about. If both "positions" are one-offs for the Rite as well as something that no other Rite has ever had, as opposed to previously-established ranks like Master Templar, I do not see a need for either page. Meanwhile, Ellen Kaye's inclusion here is peculiar. The page lede says "Advisor is [a] subordinate rank", yet she apparently counts as one just for suggesting that Alan Rikkin take a different course of action, even though she outranks him and her "suggestion" would be more like an unspoken order. – Darman (talk) 02:00, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

Agreed. This feels descriptive rather than prescriptive. God I hope I used that phrase right, otherwise I'm gunna feel really foolish. Lacrossedeamon (talk) 02:13, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
