I've reverted your good-faith addition to Tribe, because U.S. politics is not part of the topic described in that article. If you disagree, please feel free to start a discussion on Talk:Tribe. Certes (talk) 22:06, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

This is my first try, so I will accept your ruling. But would you consider that somebody encountering 'tribe' or 'tribal' in contemporary discourse might want to know how it is being used rather than how textbooks (Fried, Service etc) have defined it? Thanks! Sguha55 (talk) 23:16, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

It's not a ruling, just an opinion. We try to keep each article about a single topic rather than all meanings of a word. If the political usage is a notable topic with enough material from reliable sources then it could form a separate article, which would be listed on Tribe (disambiguation) along with the other meanings of "tribe".
