Great Sioux Nation[edit]

Great Sioux Nation (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log | edits since nomination)

This page is just duplicate information of the main Sioux page and the term is an outdated way of referring to all the Lakota and Dakota people (Oceti Sakowin is the proper native way to refer to the entire people). The Great Sioux Reservation article exists and presents information different from the main article Sioux. So this page should be deleted and redirected to one of the two articles, I suggest Sioux but either is fine. TLDR: Delete and merge per WP:OVERLAP.  oncamera  (talk page) 18:19, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. This is an important issue to get right, and I am trying to balance my lack of expertise with the perception that the nominator seems well-qualified to comment, which makes me somewhere between neutral and lean delete. CT55555(talk) 02:55, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I asked before and the admin there said merge, straight forward. I just didn't see their reply until today when I remembered I posted on there after you mentioned it here. See archived discussion post
