An anon has changed Clare's stated birth year from 1193 to 1194. In a Google search I find some support for each date. Unwilling to spend the time to track down the reason for the discrepancy and resolve it, I've left the date as 1194 on the authority of the Catholic Encyclopedia, and accordingly cited that source.

Is it appropriate to state that her body is still preserved and in public view in a church (in Assisi?) Ancheta Wis 08:24, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Above the picture, Clare is spelled "Claire." Text beneath the picture also refers to Basilica of St. Claire.
Hello,
Recently this external link:
was removed.
I believe this link meets all the wiki guidelines and is useful.
It is a link to a play about the life of Saint Francis and Saint Clare of Assisi. Many people can learn more about a subject by watching videos of the material than through just reading. Video can also communicate the information with a deeper feeling of inspiration.
Many people will view a video on a subject, but will not read at length about a subject. So a video helps spread communication in ways that written words cannot.
When this play was viewed live, many parents, who are not Catholic, were deeply moved by it. They remarked that they never knew about these (or any) Catholic Saints and they gained an appreciation they previously did not have. The school Living Wisdom School is non-sectarian and is thus able to reach many parents of different faiths, who would not normally learn about faiths outside their own.
Sorry for this long explanation. If the deleting editor is from the Catholic faith, I do believe having this video linked will help viewers learn about and more importantly appreciate these great Saints.
I'll re-post the link again, but if deleted again I'll let it go.

i added a link to the wiki article, "Solemn vow," to the text here, "Rule of life." as someone not of this religion, when i read that in the intro, i kept waiting to read this "rule" later in the article. i thought it was something "simple" (meaning, short, i guess), like, "Go and sin no more," or "Don't worry, be happy." not meaning to be flippant, but based on "rule" i thought it was some sort of "essential message" like that. when i got to the end of the article without reading what it was, i was annoyed, and curious. i tried a web search, and everything that came up showed it wasn't some "simple message," but, rather, a rather long, detailed list of "rules of conduct."
then i checked to see if there was a "Rule of Life" wiki article (it hadn't come up in the general search, as i'd hoped). of course, there isn't, but what came up was about the different orders. so i figured each order likely had their own "detailed list of rules" and i couldn't link to any of those pages because they would be different. but from one of them, i hit the "monasticism" article, then the "nun" article, then the "cloistered" article, then the "enclosed religious orders" article. that one seemed to be closest to giving another curious person the idea that a "Rule of life" involves a whole bunch of things. but then i found the "Solemn vow" article, and thought that was, perhaps, even better.
so i added it to this article, but thought i ought to make a more obvious note of it here on the Talk page, as i'm not trying to disrespect a religion or its beliefs, and maybe i'm very wrong on the understanding of "Rule of life" that i got. please, if there's a better link, could someone add it, OR, don't link to anything but maybe put a short explanation/definition of it here. thank you.

The picture in the infobox was usualy said as showing Clare of Assisi. But more and more franciscan authors, like Thaddée Matura, contest this affirmation putting forward several arguments:
So now it is clear that the picture is of Jacopa of Settesoli, even if she has never been canonized. She spent the rest of her live near the brothers, and is burried in the same Basilica of Assisi.
So it should be better to put an other picture in the infobox.
