I have added collapsable sect-subsect tree in Denomination Section, based on reference book which is cited and also looked some books on Google Books to improve it. Please make suggestions and improve it further. --Nizil (talk) 07:11, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I propose to merge Śvētāmbara Terapanth into this article, since there is not enough content there. Capankajsmilyo (talk) 10:16, 13 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose on the grounds that a religious sect with a 200 year history is likely to be independently notable. I therefore suggest improving rather than merging. Klbrain (talk) 06:17, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Further

Sthānakavāsī be merged for the reason as stated above. Capankajsmilyo^{(Talk | Infobox assistance)} 15:13, 1 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure where the ē came from, which is enshrined in the article title. In Sanskrit it is śvetāmbara not śvētāmbara. There is no letter represented by ē in sanskrit. https://sanskritdictionary.com/scans/?col=1&img=mw1107.jpg If this were supposed to be Prakrit it would be spelled completely differently as well (no conjoint consonants like 'mb').
