Hän people → Hän – target is two-item dab page, was originally a redirect to Han language, then changed to Hän language by Kmosky on October 9, 2012 Current article was moved from "Han (North American people)" to current by Kwami on June 28 2011 both contrary to both WP:UNDAB and WP:TWODABS. Note where Han people redirects, also. Skookum1 (talk) 05:52, 20 March 2014 (UTC)

• Oppose until the issue is addressed properly. These should be discussed at a centralized location.

There was a discussion once on whether the ethnicity should have precedence for the name, and it was decided it shouldn't. That could be revisited. But it really should be one discussion on the principle, not thousands of separate discussions at every ethnicity in the world over whether it should be at "X", "Xs", or "X people". — kwami (talk) 12:40, 20 March 2014 (UTC)

• Comment Hän should be displaced to Hän (disambiguation) in any case. The two-item dab page should be folded into Han (disambiguation) regardless of what happens to the name of this page. -- 70.50.151.11 (talk) 06:12, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

• Support as per the policy Wikipedia:Article titles#Use commonly recognizable names and the guideline Wikipedia:Naming conventions (ethnicities and tribes). There is no need to redo any guideline as it already supports the un-disabiguated title.
• Support per nom. An identified people should be the primary topic of a term absent something remarkable standing in the way. bd2412 T 02:34, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

what's the band government's name?

I see nothing in the article about a band government; are the Hän part of a group already listed in Category:First Nations governments in Yukon‎? Who represents their interests in Alaska, also?Skookum1 (talk) 07:40, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
