The article uses the phrase "third world" and links to that page. This is dated, I believe. The phrase used should be "Developing" world or countries. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.139.7.86 (talk) 18:56, 2 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

The lead section mentions "prescription", but the cited source is materially different from what is written in the article. The source talks about prescription as "A method of acquiring a nonpossessory interest in land through the long, continuous use of the land." so it appears to be a special case of customary law about land, and not a general legal concept. A related concept is prescriptive law. The nature of a statement that prescribes how things ought to be. A prescriptive theory is one that says how people or things should function, as opposed to how they actually do.
Anyway, "prescription" seems out of place in the lead section and I will remove it for now, until it is rewritten and place in a more appropriate place in the article. --Happyseeu (talk) 20:23, 10 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
