There have been repeated re-additions of copyright material from nathjogisanghmumbai.com/history and/or wordpress.com/2014/10/16/jogis-of-mangalore/ which are not reliable sources in any case - Arjayay ( talk) 15:12, 30 January 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the cleanup help too, but re the cats are you sure Jogi should be filed as a Brahmin caste? It takes a little sussing out on gBooks to separate mention of the Jogi as a community as opposed to simply "one who practices yoga", but these two sources look pretty interesting:

I have removed all unsourced statements from the body of this article due to repeated changes made by anonymous contributors that were not compliant with our policies etc. Feel free to reinstate if you can satisfy the requirements of WP:V while doing so.
Furthermore, I have removed the section concerning their alleged OBC status. There is some comment about this in the section immediately above but I would note in addition that the governmental OBC lists are very tough to use as sources - they're politicised, ambiguous primary sources and we do not usually allow them because to do so involves original research. Given ambiguities and similar names been used by different communities in different regions etc, how do we know that the various names given actually refer to the same community across any or all of the states that were mentioned? One obvious example is the alleged Rajput community bearing the name and which is referred to at Jogi language.
I think we really do need also to sort out the issue of caste/sect/class because I think it is leading to contradictions within the article. - Sitush ( talk) 08:18, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
