Templates, infoboxes and userboxes

Infoboxes

Indigenous groups and subgroups

Template:Infobox Ethnic group. Although created at WikiProject Ethnic groups, and included at numerous articles completely unrelated to the scope of this project, it appears as a suitable infobox for our purposes. The fact that it is already in use at many related articles also simplifies the task.

Indigenous languages

Template:Infobox Language. If you wish to add this infobox to an article, please make sure you follow the guidelines established at the template's Talk Page. Adequate examples can be consulted at several related articles, like Comanche language and Sioux language.

Reservations

Template:Infobox Settlement. Although it's also used for articles on cities and villages, this template is being used on pages about individual Indian reservations in the United States.
