@ Montanabw: why did you remove the thing about patrilineal tribes and marrying out? It's not like it's the only thing in here that's hard to source to WP standards. - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 22:00, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
The result of the proposal was not moved per discussion, as a descriptive name for a topic that has a common name.-- Fuhghettaboutit ( talk) 17:14, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

Woman wore knee-length, deerskin skirts and a poncho-like top was also worn with it. The men wore knee-length breechcloths which were decorated with shells and long fringes 75.135.119.145 ( talk) 21:47, 10 December 2019 (UTC)
I was discussing with editors on another talkpage about this article's title. And we were thinking of possibly moving it to "Indigenous peoples of the Great Plains and Canadian Prairies" and keeping Plains Indians as alternate title in the lead. Many pages about Indigenous peoples of the Americas have been updated to Indigenous people or Native American. In this case, they weren't American citizens so Indigenous peoples is better title. Thoughts? I didn't want to be too bold and move it without discussion. oncamera (talk page) 01:24, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
I totally agree, even if it's been half a year since you asked, but bearing in mind it took the Europeans ten years to figure out that they hadn't discovered India and that only in recent years questioning names has become a phenomenon - YES, please make the change.

why do all links about the plains cree redirect here, not even to the article on cree people? is there a reason or is it just that there isn’t a page for the plains cree people (if yes, should one be made?) MishchaytWiki ( talk) 01:46, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
