Hi Legolas95, thank you for acknowledging my concern;
In etymology section, user:sitush has previously suggested while replying to another user - to restore the previous content excluding Sadasivan's book reference.  The concerned sentence from this reference was self-explanatory and was not inclined to any side as to why the term Nayar is derived from Naagar.  Please consider the following point also that the Naga point of etymology was not given consideration because of misinterpretation that real serpents have evolved to constitute Nair population - which is entirely false.  I was really mentioning this census report shall stand as an authentic reference for the same.
My second humble suggestion was to consider the caste system in the article.  I would like to invite your attention to the first sentence ie.
""The Nambudiri Brahmins were at the top of the ritual caste hierarchy and in that system outranked even the kings.""
This sentence at the beginning says about the role of Namboodiri class in Kerala as a whole.  This is not about Nairs or the caste system of nairs.  Here the proposed sentence gives little light on the scene ie.
""Nairs observed no internal caste system till the Brahmin migration occurred in Kerala.""
This is not promotional to nairs but it indirectly says Brahmin migration has influenced Nair caste system.  My kind opinion is that it is better to remove present first sentence.
Second sentence says,
""Bulk of them formed the fighting and protecting class, some of whom became chiefs and Naduvazhis. Some sections of the people were engaged in other occupations also.""
This actually represent all sides of the community.  Tell me if this sentence seems inclined certainly we shall remove this.
The third sentence I consider as little important:  It says,
""It is a notable point that long before Aryans migrated southwards, Nairs had travelled far beyond the northern tradition of chathurvarna system and developed a multiplicity of castes.""
This sentence actually demonstrates that Nair community's social structure is prone to faster development.

I have a request to user:Legolas95 user:Sitush and user:Qwyrxian - In the reference under consideration, there is a sentence claiming that 'there is no evidence that before 18th century (before 1700 AD) the term sudra was ever applied to Nairs.'  If this like a sentence requires verification, we need to consider references created before this period.  What in my mind is that if we be little flexible on the matter of older reference - it can help Nair article.    

These were my concerns regarding this census report which are quite eligible to be considered and provides some help towards improvement in the article.    19:27"
