Weblinks request
editWeblinks to traditional Alberta First Nations' music and stories for the different cultural groups would be useful and exciting for Alberta students and other Albertans. (Unsigned by 68.149.118.253, 17:47, 20 June 2005)
Assessment
editI used {{B-Class}} as classification.
To do:
- link/create articles/stubs for each nation
- create articles for red links (even as stubs)
- create a general history sumary, eventualy link to a separate history article

Reserve vs. Nation
editI've noticed that on older Alberta road maps reserves are IDed by a reserve name and number, whereas now they are IDed by the name of the nation living on them. Is this strictly accurate? Is it the reserve we should write articles about, or the nation, or both? I've noticed that we don't have a Stony Plain Indian Reserve #135 but we do have Enoch Cree Nation. Was this just done to mimic gov't usage or are we all in agreement that it is the nations that we are interested in. Don't some nations live on more than one reserve? And don't some reserves contain more than one nation? Kevlar67 01:16, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
- Wait, I found Stony Plain 135, Alberta, so nevermind. I guess we should just be careful to remember whether we are writing about the reserve or the nation, and make sure that the right links are used in other articles. Kevlar67 01:24, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
List
editMost of the article seems to be a list of the first nations groups in Alberta. Shouldn't we just move it and say so?Canadianshoper 03:40, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Or rather leave the name and add history, demographics and so on. --66.82.9.52 15:53, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
Métis in Alberta
editIn case you were looking for it (perhaps you followed a link labelled Aboriginal peoples in Alberta to find this page, as I did), information on Métis in Alberta is in a separate article.
Kindly editors: is there some way this article could be made more visible? (perhaps a 'see also' on this page, or some link from the Métis page?) 69.181.192.2 21:22, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
- A link exists in the {{Topics on Alberta}} navbox; added link to see also section, just in case. --Qyd 21:35, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
