Crow Indian Reservation

Thank you for your edits to Crow Indian Reservation. I noticed in one of your edits that you cited "Linderman, Frank B.: Plenty Coups. Chief of the Crows. Lincoln/London, 1962, pp. 239-240." I found a later addition of the book here, and it is just 194 pages long. Did you get your pages wrong? Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 12:17, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I see you are editing articles on Native peoples of the American west --I'd like to invite you to join WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America, a gathering place for Wikipedia editors who work on articles in this topic. Montanabw(talk) 03:38, 16 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

((reply to|Montanabw)) Hi. Thanks for the invitation to join the project about Indigenous peoples. Now I have thought about it - it is silly not to join, of course. So, now I am in. Yours Naawada2016 (talk) 08:01, 20 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

How to repeatedly cite the same source in an article.

Check out this link for how to cite a source multiple times in the same article. You give the ref a name, and then the additional refs use the abbreviated form show here: Wikipedia:Citing sources#Repeated citations, rather than having to fill out the whole thing again. If it's the same book but found on different pages, go ahead and do a new ref for it. But if all the data is the same, just use the shortened format for repeats shown at that link. - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 20:28, 20 June 2017 (UTC) ((reply to|CorbieVreccan))Hi and thanks for the information. I have spent my time improving articles but I try to learn more about how to edit in line with the standards. I will try to remember your fine advise.Naawada2016 (talk) 08:37, 24 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes of the Flathead Nation, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Buffalo (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

AfC notification: Draft:The Pawnee capture of the Cheyenne's Sacred Arrows has a new comment

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:The Pawnee capture of the Cheyenne's Sacred Arrows. Thanks! SeraphWiki (talk) 04:27, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@SeraphWiki: Hi SeraphWiki and thanks for your view and objection to my draft about the capture of the Sacred Arrows of the Cheyennes.

Of course, I have not spent hours on finding sources, making a map and also the little picture with drawings from two Lakota winter counts if I thought the subject was out of the Wikipedia range.

My reasoning is as follows: The Sacred Arrows are mentioned in the text about the Cheyenne.

We have existing articles about both the Cheyenne tribe and the Pawnee tribe. Since this is one of the major battles in the history of both tribes, it is all right to write about it; Sacred Arrows captured or not. This intertribal battle deserves to be mentioned no matter what.

We have an article about the Sand Creek Massacre. It is strange not to have an article about an even worse disaster according to the Cheyennes living 200 years ago. We may think, that the Sand Creek Massacre was the worst blow to the Cheyennes, but the old Cheyennes may have seen thinks differently and clearly did so according to George Bent. Regardless of our own view, I think we owe the old Cheyennes so much respect, that we accept their view on events experienced by them.

The battle had far reaching "links". The recapture of one of the Sacred Arrows by the Lakotas in 1843 was such an extraordinary event, that it was found worthy to be mentioned in at least three of the Lakota winter counts. (I show the drawings from two of them in the draft). Again - if a number of Lakotas living in 1843 considered this event to be the most memorable of the year, it is strange that we can't hear about it. The event fits nicely in exactly at the place where it is mentioned in my draft.

The article has a link to another of the Sacred Arrows battles. That is the massacre on the Crow camp at Tongue River in 1820 (also written by me). If a reader wants to read more about these rare Sacred Arrows battles, an article is just a link away.

I think, we have only discussed this from a view focused on the Cheyenne and the Sacred Arrows. I think it is all right to look at this event from the Indian point of view of a Pawnee, too. The Pawnee still have the two original arrows, no matter what the Cheyennes have done to get them back. Clearly, the capture of arrows is one of the great moments in the history of the Pawnee.

If Wikipedia lacks an article about the Sacred Arrows, I can easily write one. I hesitate, because I do not know how detailed such an article is supposed to be? My draft about the capture of the Sacred Arrows actually lists some sources of use for readers interested in the ceremony performed before a battle and also about the renewing of the arrows. Thus, readers who want to know about the Sacred Arrows are not left without any clues to where to find more about the subject.

A lot written; I hope to get a reply from you - no matter what. You see, I am not an eagle on Wikipedia, and I am still not sure that my answers to fellow-Wikipedians reach their destinations. I hope, I have this one right!

Your submission at Articles for creation: The Ponca migration (February 19)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Dial911 was:
This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
References are not verifiable. Provide at least 2 sources that can be cross-checked.

There There (novel)

Just a note. Heard a story on NPR about this, and wrote the article today. Seems like a book you might like. It's pretty damn good as far into it as I am, and I don't really read that much fiction. GMGtalk 21:34, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@GreenMeansGo: Well, thanks. I will give it a thought. Neither do I read much fiction - I spent most of my spare time researching and writing here on Wikipedia. Right now, I try to create an article about the Arikara Indian scouts. Wikipedia lacks one.Naawada2016 (talk) 16:07, 8 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oh yeah. Also feel free to stop by Treaty of Bosque Redondo anytime, and especially in the case you've got some useful books handy. GMGtalk 16:20, 8 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@GreenMeansGo:It looks like a fine novel. I have read Susan Powers "Grass Dance" twice (Lakota) and "Yellow Float on Blue Water" or something like that by ??? some years ago. So it is not that I NEVER read fiction.Naawada2016 (talk) 16:39, 8 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

List of fur trading posts in Montana

Hi, would you be able to supply me with scans of the most important pages you've referenced in this draft? I'd like to verify them before I accept the page. Pages 36, 127, and 98 of reference 1 would be nice, as would page 67 and 68 of ref 2. The rest I'm willing to assume good faith with. Additionally, the history section is unreferenced. Cheers, Anarchyte (work | talk) 07:18, 16 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Anarchyte: Hi back. Now, I have made references in the History section of "List of fur trading posts in Montana". Also, I have made an external link to one of the requested sources: "Montana Historical Preserving Plan, 1975". Usually, I do not have a good hand with external links, but I think I have succeeded with this one. Just - I can't figure out how to separate the link from the list of categories. PLEASE HELP! Once again - forgive my ignorance, but I really do not know how to send you PFD files of the pages in Hoxie's book, which I actually have on the bookshelf. Please, tell me or trust me.
