POV

[edit]

This article is POV in that it distinctly favors the Velky faction, has only critical references to the Russell group. suggests that the original BIA hearing examiner's decision was reversed owing to political pressure, omits any description of the errors and flaws that were found in the original evidence presented, and omits any discussion of the alleged outside support to the Velky faction's efforts, believed by some to have the goal of opening a profitable casino. These and similar matters could be discussed without taking sides in the controversy. 76.230.152.236 (talk) 18:05, 20 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Agree it seems to be missing critical info, as well as RS. Very hard to understand what took place and which application was actually rejected. Your comment helps some, but it needs research to back this up.Parkwells (talk) 14:51, 16 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Help defining tribal lineage.

[edit]

I have gathered a lot of sources from the New Fairfield Free Public Library, and i have created articles for Chief Squantz and Chief Waramaug but i could use insight from others, especially people who are Schaghticoke, in determining the relationship through time of the different tribal names like Potatuck and Schaghticoke and when each were used. I hope my work here is useful. SageRad (talk) 16:18, 4 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I've also integrated some of the knowledge into Housatonic River. SageRad (talk) 16:18, 4 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
