There seems to be a loop in the order of precedence links on these pages. Specifically, this page's infobox says the next lower order is the Ratana Varabhorn Order of Merit, but this creates a loop. It seems that the order of precedence depends on the specific rank within each order (Orders, decorations, and medals of Thailand), and thus trying to list the orders as a whole isn't well-defined.
I'm American, so unfortunately I know very little about orders of chivalry, honors, etc.—is there an existing convention for what to do in this situation? For example, for the purposes of the infobox, should orders be compared by the relative precedence of their highest ranks, in which case the Vajira Mala Order would be the next order? I've tentatively updated this page in such a manner (to remove the loop), but please revert my edit if I'm wrong.
If it's relevant, I looked at the pages for the UK honors, and it seems to me like they say "Varies, depending on rank" (Order of the British Empire) or have nothing at all ([[1]]) for "lower" and "higher". BalinKingOfMoria (talk) 18:34, 3 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
