Inclusion of First Nations in article[edit]

Should "First Nations" be included, as it is in the opening paragraph of the article? I post this here from a series of edits (removed [1], reinstated [2], and three more back-and-forths), which ended up discussed on an IP talk page, where it was suggested by another user [3] that discussion be moved to the talk page here. From the editor's talk page discussion:

From [4]:
You need to remove the fake entry no reference to any existing jigs of first nation people. You keep adding in fake info . Show your reference to a native American indian jig ?

From [5]:
The first reference in the Red River Jig article is to Ethnologies, and the article titled "The Social Poetics of the Red River Jig in Alberta and Beyond".^[1] And the very first sentence in the Abstract is "The Red River Jig is a fiddle tune and a dance form that have particular resonance for First Nations and Métis peoples in Northern and Western Canada." _signed,Willondon (talk) 02:31, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

From [6], [7]:
I went through all your references and no mention of first nation . The word you want is metis people not first nation . There has never ever been a native American tribe in north America to jig dance thats a European and metis thing not first nation . Unless you got references to native American tribes square dancing and dancing jigs stop destroying native American culture with fake entries. I was trying to not flood you with reference to disprove you . Im talking this over with tribal council to take appropriate actions leagally. So out of just the 500 plus tribes in just Canada i cant find 1 first nation tribe that jigs but your sentence says all first nation people jig . Now on to usa out of the 560 tribes i cant find any reference to jigs . Only thing i find is metis jigs . Obviously its not all first nation people maybe list out the tribes that jig .

So, should mention of First Nations be included in the article? I say Wikipedia just has to go by the secondary sources we use, and this is the one we've got. _signed,Willondon (talk) 18:32, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
