[edit] Birth year
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)
The Catholic Encyclopedia (listed under External Links) says that it is her skeleton that remains on display and not her incorrupt body.
[edit] Spelling
Above the picture, Clare is spelled "Claire." Text beneath the picture also refers to Basilica of St. Claire.
