Sources for expansion

Found this while checking on Mankiller's formal title, and thought it might be useful for expanding on the article: http://archive.salon.com/people/bc/2001/11/20/mankiller/index.html

Perhaps a comment on her name would be nice. Can anyone find a good reference?

Samuel James from Geary, Oklahoma

"she even knew Samuel James from Geary Oklahoma."

Samuel, while this information is probably very gratifying to you personally, it doesn't belong in the encyclopedia until such a time as you get your own entry for encyclopediable events.

Footnotes

There are a lot of mysterious numbers in the article; I don't know whether they are artifacts of some clip-and-pasted article, or page numbers in some book/magazine. Could these be turned into actual references conforming to our standard. The Principal Chief of the Nation deserves the best. --Orange Mike | Talk 21:58, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

Can this page be partially protected since it is the subject of so much vandalism? -Uyvsdi (talk) 19:33, 27 March 2009 (UTC)Uyvsdi[reply]

Discussion of Wilmas Freedman Law

WIlma only excluded the Freedmen Roll from enrollment. THe 'by blood' lists adopted whites, intermarried whites, delawares shawnee, creek and natchez indians. The 'intermarried whites' were just recently kicked out due to the 2006 special election, though the 'adopted whites' can still enroll.
