[edit] Nakawe v. Anishinaabe
We recently had two anonymous users changing the roman "Nakawe" to "Anishinabe" without changing the syllabics. Though the change in terminology is not fully wrong, it isn't fully correct either, in addition to introducing a mismatch between the roman and syllabics. To nip this edit war in the bud, I propose under "Ethnic classification" section, we introduce three sub-sections speaking specifically of Ontario Saulteaux, Manitoba Saulteaux and Western Saulteaux. Why? Ontario Saulteaux do not call themselves "Nakawe", neither do eastern Manitoba Saulteax, but western Manitoba Saulteaux and Western Saulteaux do. Ontario Saulteaux is very much a Woodlands Ojibwe culture, Western Saulteaux is clearly a Plains Ojibwe culture, while Manitoba Saulteaux acts as a transition between the two. In treaties, Ontario Saulteaux signed Treaty 3, Manitoba Saulteaux signed Treaty 1, while Western Saulteaux signed Treaty 4 (with far flung communities also signing Treaty 8). In addition, even in language, Ontario Saulteaux language is identified with ISO 639-3 language code of OJB, while Manitoba and Western Saulteaux languages are identified with ISO 639-3 language code of OJW. Due to shades of cultural differences, shades of language differences and shades of treaty relationship with Canada differences, expanding this section with three subsection should not only improve the article but also nip the edit war in the bud. Agree? Disagree? Please comment. CJLippert (talk) 20:28, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
