Incorrect table Ranks
The table is obviously incorrect. Malaiya (talk) 03:27, 20 October 2018 (UTC)
 * In Digambara tradition, the Monk/Nun comparison above Kshullak is incorrect.
 * Elacharya (Yuvacharya etc) is not a formal rank. It is not given in any classical text. Yuvacharya title was an invention of Acharya Tulsi for Muni Nathmal (later Mahaprajna).
 * Mataji = Aryka.
 * Ganini Aryika and Ganini Aryika Pramukha are not formal ranks. Technically they are also Aryikas.
