I'm sure Rashmun is flagged and banned on Wikipedia's Akbar page for the number edits he may have made to the page. Same for Nawab of Arcot and Mughals pages.

I dont trust the information.

What about Naarth-South; Tamil-Hindian; Tambrahmism - backward caste; Syrian Christians - Naboodiris; Tamil-Gult?

Grandpa Jeremiah may be most active on this site and appears to be working hard on the site.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Thomas_Christians

Saint Thomas Christians derive status within the caste system from the tradition that they were elites, who were evangelized by St. Thomas.[129][134]

Internal division of Saint Thomas Christians into Northists and Southists and also into a number of sects based on the ecclesiastical orientation makes the pattern of segmentation an exceedingly complex one.[132] Fuller believes that the caste hierarchy among these Christian groupings in Kerala is more polarized than the Hindu system of gradation and ascribes this relatively high polar nature to the limited number of castes among Christians while innumerable castes and sub castes are arranged in the Hindu hierarchical order.[129] Forrester suggests that the Northist-Southist division forms two groups within the Saint Thomas Christian community which are closely analogous to sub-castes.[132] At the same time, different Saint Thomas Christian denominations like Catholic, Jacobite, Mar Thomite, etc. are better regarded as sects, rather than sub-castes, since the recruitment to these sects cannot be strictly ascribed to birth.[129][132] Also, internal mobility is allowed among these Saint Thomas Christian sects and the caste status is kept even if the sect allegiance is switched (for example, from Syrian Orthodox to Syrian Catholic).[135] That is, despite the sectarian differences, Saint Thomas Christians share a common social status within the Caste system of Kerala and is considered as Forward Caste.[132
