Jainism (pronounced in English as /ˈdʒeɪ.nɪzm̩/), traditionally known as Jain Dharma (जैन धर्म) , is a classical religion with its origins in the prehistory of India. The Jains, although a small minority in India now, have continued to sustain the shraman (श्रमण) tradition. Jainism is significantly influential in both the ethical and economic spheres in India. Jainism places great stress on compassion to all living beings. Self-control (व्रत vrata in Sanskrit) forms a central part of being a Jain.

Naming Conventions:
- Name all the people by just first name, or full name where applicable.
- Use words such as Tirthankar, Kevali postfixed to wikipedia article name, to avoid ambiguation where necessary.
- Use names from Logass Sutra, as primary identifier. Which means Use Rishabh, in place of Adinath, and Vardhamana in place of Mahavir.
- In the article, use Lord for tirthankar. E.g. Lord Vardhamana. Use Kevali for all Siddha/Kevali. E.g. Kevali Bahubali. Archarya, Upadhyaya, Sadhu etc...
- For others who may not have been monk, and neither the top 5, identify if use of words such as Pandit, Guru be suitable.
- For articles on Ganadhar, use Ganadhar GanadharName.
