Ocáriz was the third, not the fourth, prelate of Opus Dei

I made a change to a version of this article that mistakenly referred to Ocáriz as the "fourth prelate" of Opus Dei. He is the fourth head of Opus Dei, but the third prelate.

The four heads of Opus Dei, in order, have been Josemaria Escriva, Alvaro del Portillo, Javier Echevarria, and Fernando Ocariz. Alvaro del Portillo became the first prelate after Opus Dei became a personal prelature, in 1982. There are numerous published sources referring to Alvaro del Portillo as the "first prelate." See, for example: http://opusdei.org/en-uk/article/blessed-alvaros-face-infused-peace-joy-friendship/ Lionmarble (talk) 19:36, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
