Hi, Oncamera. Do you have time to look over the section "Dakota homeland, city founded" under History in Minneapolis? It is so rare to have anyone show interest in the article. I had this section in a sandbox and it can use your help. -SusanLesch (talk) 19:19, 23 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. This is the FAR underway. -SusanLesch (talk) 20:01, 23 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

On 9 February 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Bdóte, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Bdóte, an area of sacred significance to the Dakota people, centered on the confluence of the Minnesota and Mississippi rivers, was also the site of their forced exile from Minnesota? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Bdóte. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Bdóte), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hello, Oncamera. May I ask why you reverted my edit to Native Americans in the United States? Personally, I wouldn't have phrased the header as such, but I believe it would be "Africans and Native Americans have interacted for centuries. " and not "African and Native Americans have interacted for centuries. ", which would imply a single person from Africa has interacted with Native Americans for centuries. I'm sure this was in good faith, but I would appreciate an explanation. Best regards, UnexpectedSmoreInquisition aka USI (talk) 15:10, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Rereading the sentence, it's possible that the implied explanation is that it means "African Americans and Native Americans have interacted for centuries." Due to English being weird, both are correct, my apologies. UnexpectedSmoreInquisition aka USI (talk) 15:13, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the sentence is meant to be read as shortening African Americans and Native Americans. Perhaps it can be written clearer and just put "African Americans and Native Americans" or "African- and Native-Americans". But grammatically, the Americans is pluralized and not African or Native in either case.  oncamera  _{(talk page)} 20:39, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, just confused on MOS. I'll add your suggestion. Best regards, UnexpectedSmoreInquisition aka USI (talk) 21:32, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Oncamera, Thanks for letting me know about adding the citations. But, I'm little confused with what can be the valid citations that can be linked with the data. I have found related WIKI articles to the statements that I have added, will that be fine to go ahead add those WIKI's or let me know your inputs in this regard.

@Suchithra moolinti: No, you need to add sources to your statements. See Help:Referencing for beginners. Otherwise, add your updates to the talk page with sources and editors will look at what you want to add. Because this is a featured class article undergoing review, your edits will be scrutinized and likely removed or highly edited. It might be better to focus your first edits on a different article.  oncamera  _{(talk page)} 18:45, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
