Why merged ???
- I've unmerged, and move the articles to more obvious names. ("Yupik" and "Yup'ik" were just too close.) I've tagged it for expert attention, since there may be ) 01:37, 7 August 2011 (UTC)

- withdrawn both of these because of explanations by Kmosky below
* Klickitat people → Klickitat

*
- target is dab page created by Gil Gamesh originally as redirect to "Entiat, Washington" on Aug 7 2006, then converted to dab page on Oct 5, 2007. Current article was moved from "Entiat (tribe)" to "Entiat tribe" on Oct 26 2010 by Kwami
- Kathlamet people → Kathlamet
- target is redirect to current title, created/moved by Kwami on Oct 30 2009
- Quileute people → Quileute
- target was moved to "Quinalt (tribe)" by JLippert on April 18 2007, then made into dab on Oct 2 2009 by Mdnavman, then moved to current title by Kwami on June 8 2010. This is a PRIMARYTOPIC and MOSTCOMMON issue, the people are by far the MOSTCOMMON and original/primary use of this term
- Quinault people → Quinault
- Palus people → Palus
- current title is for "a tehsil Sangli district in the Indian state of Maharashtra", hardly MOSTCOMMON for the use of this term in English (even in India, where this place is obscure). That page created Feb 20 2007 by Shivap. Palus (tribe) redirected to "Palus tribe" on Oct 26 2010 by kwami. moved to current title by myself on Jan 28 2011 citing "moving to generic "people" because of legal associations of "tribe" in the United States". I submit that the district in India is not the PRIMARYTOPIC and that page shoudl be changed and Palusbecome for the people article.

- Duwamish tribe → Duwamish
- target was created as redirect to "Duwamish (fireboat)" by Lukobe on July 26 2006, then converted into dab page by same author on same date. Then Duwamish (tribe) redirected to "Duwamish tribe" on Dec 13 2010 by Kwami. NB the Duwamish, whose name is the origin of that of the river and the fireboat, are not a federally-recognized tribe and so the "tribe" wording is not viable; simplest and cleanest is "Duwamish" by itself. PRIMARYTOPIC/MOSTCOMMON
- target was created as redirect to "Duwamish (fireboat)" by Lukobe on July 26 2006, then converted into dab page by same author on same date. Then
- Yakama people → Yakama
- target is redirect to current title redirected by kwami on Jun 8 2010 to "Yakama Tribe", moved to current title by Usvdi on Sept 17 2013 citing "This article is about ethnic Yakama; the federally recognized Nation includes other ethnic groups". Then immediately redirected to Yakama Nationthere is a redirect to the rez article.

Not that Swinomishbecause of the existing redirect.
- Cowlitz people → Cowlitz
- Pend d'Oreilles people → Pend d'Oreilles
- target moved to "Pend d'Oreilles (tribe)" by Uysvdi on March 30 2010, then redirected from "Pend d'Oreilles tribe" to current title also by Uysvdi on Aug 5, 2013. Pend Oreille is a dab page; the Canadian spelling of the river name is the same as that of the people but because the greater portion of the river's name is in the US, the US spelling is used for that article.
- Nez Perce people → Nez Perce
- target is to large dab page where all items have the name of the people as their origin by direct association. moved to "Nez Perce (tribe)" on Sep 7 2007 by Mike Cline, in the course of creating Nez Perce (disambiguation) which was moved to "Nez Perce" by Kwami on Oct 18 2010 despite obvious PRIMARYTOPIC.
- Nisqually people → Nisqually
- target is dab page by 67.75.225.201 on Sep 4 2003 about the people and the river. Nisqually Indian Tribe
- target is dab page by 67.75.225.201 on Sep 4 2003 about the people and the river.
- Makah people → Makah
- target is redirect to current title, first created/moved by JorisV on June 8 2010, then reconverted by Usyvdi to WP:TWODABS, language article is but one aspect of Makah culture, language article gets only 8%-11% of the hits people article gets, has only 18% as many links to it"

- target is redirect to current title created by Fastifex on June 11 2006. People article was created as "Spokane (tribe)" by 216.178.56.251 on July 8 2005. Then https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spokane_people&diff=333094973&oldid=330383548 moved from there to "Spokan tribe" by Samwb 123] then to https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spokane_people&diff=333095173&oldid=333094973 "Spokan Tribe" by same author], then to Spokane people by Mark Shabazz on Nov 23 2009] then moved by Kwami to "Spokane tribe" on March 11 2011 by Kwami, then reverted by Maunus on March 12, 2011 citing "no nconsensus for move. Tribes and peoples are not necesarrily synonymous and moving requires discussion to decide what is the precise topic of this article)"
- Stillaguamish people → Stillaguamish
- target is small dab page with three items directly relating to the people, including the people article as Stillaguamish (tribe), and the river article. Originally created as a dab on Sep 4 2003 by 67.75.225.201 then redirected to current title by Uysvdi on Jan 3 2011
- target is small dab page with three items directly relating to the people, including the people article as
- Suquamish tribe → Suquamish
- target is redirect to current page, moved to "Suquamish tribe" by Kwami on Jan 1 2011, which was then redirected to "Suquamish (disambiguation)" by Mtsmallwood on Jun 15 2011, then moved back to obvious primary target by JaGa on June 22 201]. Suquamish (disambiguation) still exists and has three items, including the town and the ship
- Mi'kmaq → Mi'kmaq (disambiguation)
- See Mi'kmaq entry on Talk:Cayuga people#Requested move
* Walla Walla people → Walla Walla
- current title is dab page, created as redirect to "Walla Walla, Washington" on Sept 9 2001
* Walla Walla → Walla Walla (disambiguation)
- withdrawing nomination because the town, like Squamish, is by far the most common use of the name.
- Sanpoil tribe → Sanpoil
- target is a redirect to current title, moved from "Sanpoil" to "Sanpoil (tribe)" by Rosiestep on Oct 5, 2007, then double redirect to Sanpoil tribe by XQBot on Oct 26 2011. Sanpoil (disambiguation)exists because of the river, a ship and two redlinks (one of them which pretty much might as well redirect to the river)
* Snoqualmie people → Snoqualmie
- target is dab page, created Jun 6 2004 by Neal Finne, then expanded into dabpage by Wac on Aug 4 2004. Withdrawing name because of city name being MOSTCOMMON even though in that case the dab title should redirect to the city and there should be Snoqualmie (disambiguation)
- Willapa people → Willapa
- target is dab page, created as "Willapa (disambiguation)" by Babbage on Sep 14 2007, then moved to "Willapa" which was vacant at the time, by Mtsmallwood on Nov 5 2012. People article created by myself on Nov 24 2009 as "Willapa" was taken
- Skokomish people → Skokomish
- target is dab page created with two items by 67.75.229.103 on Sept 12 2003. People article began as Skokomish (tribe), then moved to "Spokane tribe" by Kwami on Dec 13 2010, then reverted by him as he'd missed talkpages, then reverted to "Skokomish tribe" by him on the same date, then moved to current title by Uysvdi on Dec 13 2013citing "renaming to disambiguate ethnic group article from federally recognized Skokomish Indian Tribe)"
- target is dab page created with two items by 67.75.229.103 on Sept 12 2003. People article began as
- Sahaptin peoples → Sahaptin
- target is redirect to current title, originally created as two-item dab titled "Sahaptin (disambiguation)" by Primetime on Feb 14 2006 then moved to "Sahaptin" by Commander Keane as "(disambiguation)" is superfluous". That title has been deleted and is now a redlink. Then "redirected to PRIMARYTOPIC" (current title) by Uysvdi on Oct 20 2013
*
- As with Walla Walla and Entiat and others, withdrawing nomination because of MOSTCOMMON being the city; nonetheless "Snohomish" as a title was originally for the group only. The "tribe" title is inappropriate as these are not a federally-recognized tribe

- Procedural oppose any swapping of a page with a disambiguation page should be requested separately, for every swap instance, a separate discussion should occur. Any displacement of a disambiguation page and replacement of its location for some other use should also occur separately for each instance. These are all different primary topic discussions. Several of the targets are disambiguation pages, so overwriting a disambiguation page is a primary topic dispute, and should each be discussed separately. -- 70.50.151.11 (talk) 04:49, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

- The limitations on bulk RMs I coped with as best I could; hundreds of articles are involved, 120 only so far have been posted, and all concern a central titling issue and what should be a convention. And you know what? You claim "several" discussions have been opened, but I've watchlisted every single item now, and do not see "several" but only the main one at Talk:Chipewyan people, that that would be the place for centralized discussion, but I forgot the common sense is in short supply around Wikipedia, especially on matters of procedure. The procedure that is at question here is how it was that so many articles got changed without discussion, and if the RM process weren't limited by number in such cases....it seems you just want to pick this apart procedurally without actually considering the overall issue....about a group of RMs which need to be addressed collectively......applying separate guidelines to over a hundred similar-topic articles is not workable; especially when the convention/guideline used to change them doesn't even exist except in the claims of the perpetrator.Skookum1 (talk) 16:21, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
- Comment Re this "People have left these kind of notes referencing already closed discussions before" and then proceeded to attack me with "so it is not an obvious conclusion that you want a unified discussion area at that location from this page's rationale" as if I wanted a decentralized discussion, which is absurd. The closed discussions of relevance to this matter are at Talk:Okanagan people#Requested move. Of the closed ones, all went to the standalone "FOO" form, by the way.Skookum1 (talk) 16:58, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
- I wasn't referring to any moves of any of these aboriginal North American articles at all. This happens all over the place, like with album articles, which is the ones I most recently encountered. I can't see why you construed that as an attack. And since two of the other discussions have garnered opinions from people other than myself, I would say it is "several". That people keep posting to more than one of the open discussions after my "procedural oppose"s were lodged indicates that it is not clear where you wanted the discussion to occur. If it were clear where you wanted the unified discussion, there wouldn't be any opinions posted except my procedural opposes. -- 70.50.151.11 (talk) 08:24, 15 March 2014 (UTC)

- Comment "Yupik peoples → Yupik" is "moveable", but "Central Alaskan Yupik people → Central Alaskan Yupik" is "not moveable". Because, common usage in Alaska: the Yup'ik (with apostrophe = pronunciation: Yuppik) for Central Alaskan Yup'ik people and language (also Yup'iks of Chevak town are Cup'ik [pronunciation: Chuppik] and Yup'iks of Nunivak island are Cup'ig [pronunciation: Chuppig]). the Yupik (not apostrophe = pronunciation: Yupik) for Siberian Yupik people and language on St. Lawrence Island. --Kmoksy (talk) 12:21, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
- Yupik peoples = non-Inuit Eskimos = Siberian Yupik people (Alaska & Russia) + Yup'ik people (of central Alaska, incl. Cup'ik & Cup'ig) + Alutiiq ~ Sugpiaq people of southern Alaska (Kodiak & Chugach).
- Inuit peoples = non-Yupik Eskimos = Inupiat people (of northern Alaska) + Inuit people (Eastern & Western Canadian) + Greenlandic people. --Kmoksy (talk) 14:40, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
- Are you suggesting that Inuit language, a title created to replace Inuktitut, this was done against MOSTCOMMON as "Inuktitut" has been an established and regular term within Canadian English for decades now. I note also there is a category Category:Eskimos which is of dubious utility given the derogatory sense of that name and exoynmic origin of that name as perceived by the Inuit et al. (at least in Canada) per the naming convention on indigenous peoples and tribes: ""How the group self-identifies should be considered. If their autonym is commonly used in English, it would be the best article title. Any terms regarded as derogatory by members of the ethnic group in question should be avoided." I'm grateful for the clarification re Yupik/Yup'ik however. I had no idea that the Koniag (as that article was originally, or at least temporarily, titled) and Chugach were Eskimos/Yupik, you learn something new every day (I wish more people around here would). I guess I thought they were Athapaskans...Skookum1 (talk) 15:47, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
- Turns out that WP:NCLANG....Inuvialuit is what is MOSTCOMMON in Canadian Engish, if "Inuvaliuk" IS heard it would be in reference to an individuals, and a reference to the people as a whole would invariably in "Inuvialuit" in English.....on New Years Day, I remember him doing scads of these while everyone else was not around Wikipedia. When will the madness stop??Skookum1 (talk) 15:52, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
- I'm surprised he didn't to the same to Inuit by making it Inuk people. Relieved is more like it.Skookum1 (talk) 05:59, 16 March 2014 (UTC)
- Given the "procedural opposition" about the bulk RM it looks like I may better file separate RMs on the above-named articles, likewise on Slavey people/Slavey language and others, as it's not just "people" articles that have been bulldozed (without any procedure) to archaic/in disfavour terms by that editor's activities.Skookum1 (talk) 04:49, 16 March 2014 (UTC) Skookum1 (talk) 15:52, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
- The page Yupik (with people or people-less simply) for all Yupik branch of Eskimos, but Yup'ik (with people or people-less simply) for only Central Alaskan Yup'ik (the apostrophed usage for only this people and language and most common in Alaska). In fact, Central Alaskan Yup'ik [people / language] → Yup'ik [people / language]. The Inuit people (of Canada) = Eastern Canadian Inuit (= Inuvialuk or Inuvialuit, Inuvialuktun-speaking Inuit) + Western Canadian Inuit (= Inuit proper or Inuktitut-speaking Inuit). Alutiiq ~ Sugpiaq (Aleutized Yupiks of southern Alaska) are two main groups: the Western group are Koniag Alutiiq (more) or Koniag Sugpiaq (less) of Kodiak Island and the Eastern group are Chugach Sugpiaq (more) or Chugach Alutiiq (less) of the Kenai Peninsula and Prince William Sound. Chugach are not Athabaskan. Also, Eyak Indians are not Athabaskan and not Eskimo or not Aleut (U.S. Census Bureau: Chugach and Eyak are "Aleut"!). Soon, I'll write Tanana Athabaskans new page. --Kmoksy (talk) 16:35, 15 March 2014 (UTC)

"Hieroglyphics"?
"The Alaskan Yupik and Inupiat are the only Northern indigenous peoples to have developed their own system of hieroglyphics, but this system that died with its creators.[11]"
