Organization

Instead of grouping barely notable bodies with a handful of congregations (many of which probably shouldn't even have articles as they're non-notable and lack third-party coverage at all) mixed in with major national bodies that have tens of thousands of members with zero way to distinguish them, this should be reorganized to list the bodies from largest to smallest. Someone who doesn't already know which body is which looking at this for the first time would have zero clue that the LCMS is the second-largest body with a national footprint and not just a regional on in one state. It's poorly organized to aid in navigation. The unexplained acronyms for the defunct bodies doesn't help either. It's clearly been put together by those who haven't stepped away from the subject enough to look at the big picture. oknazevad (talk) 20:35, 9 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
