@ Treetoes023: This article is mainly about Native American tribes (United States) so it makes little sense to move the article, especially without discussion. oncamera (talk page) 04:35, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
I see that this was Indigenous fashion of the Americas before it was unilaterally moved. Do editors prefer to delete all the non-Native American content or change the article back? Yuchitown ( talk) 17:08, 12 November 2023 (UTC)Yuchitown
Throughout Wikipedia, Native American is almost always defined as Indigenous peoples of the United States, so that's likely where all the commentary/confusion comes from. Indigenous peoples of Canada are the main folks who do not want to be called Native American. If you all want to keep the scope to cover all Indigenous peoples of the Americas then it would seem that the name should reflect that, a la Visual arts of the Indigenous peoples of the Americas, Ceramics of Indigenous peoples of the Americas, Photography by Indigenous peoples of the Americas, etc. Yuchitown ( talk) 19:12, 12 November 2023 (UTC)Yuchitown
I wouldn't dare make a qualitative judgment about the relative merits or success of the Indigenous fashion designers from various countries; that's well outside Wikipedia's purview. I just wanted to find out what was going on here, since the article didn't match the title. No, I definitely wouldn't want to delete good content, User:SusunW, or undo your hard work. I can propose a proper split, so the content all goes to the proper places (and everything is crosslinked). Then folks can decide what to do. Yuchitown ( talk) 20:49, 12 November 2023 (UTC)Yuchitown
I propose that the material about fashion by Native Americans in the United States stay as Native American fashion, while the content about Indigenous peoples from outside the United States be split into a separate article called Indigenous fashion of the Americas, with extensive crosslinking.
