Hi Uyvsdi - I saw your addition in the Sami people page regarding Prince as being Sami. The source that Baiki got that from was later to be found as a hoax and they will be printing a retraction in their Spring, 2009 issue. Just to let you know that that what I did was a friendly edit and that Baiki is normally a good source. Good try anyway. Take Care... Dinkytown (talk) 02:28, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Uyvsdi - I actually know the Baiki editors. You can contact them regarding the issue and they will tell you how it happened (long story). They know about this discussion already on wiki (I talked to them today), you can contact them via their email on baiki.org. Tell them that dinkytown (ME:"Chris") sent you, they know who I am. They will thank you for your citation of them - take care... Dinkytown (talk) 07:01, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Uyvsdi, just as an FYI, the names listed are per the most current Federal Register names. Please do not change the names listed unless the names on the Federal Register changes. Also, instead of providing a direct link from the page itself, please instead provide a redirect from the link provided on the page, as this would aid in quick update of the page when a new edition of the "Indian Entities Recognized and Eligible To Receive Services From the United States Bureau of Indian Affairs" is published in the Federal Register. Thank you for identifying articles that needed linking, I have gone ahead and created redirects to the appropriate articles. CJLippert (talk) 18:43, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot (talk) 17:42, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
