As this is a smaller page, I'm not sure everything is completely accurate here yet. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 3rdEditor (talk • contribs) 21:45, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

Getting Accurate Information with the Tribe
Hello Wikipedia,

As with many tribes, it can be hard to find resources, especially online, about a tribe, doubly so if you aren't a part of it and lack those connections. I would like to add this page as a reminder that our website is constantly evolving, recently having a massive rehaul from a 2000's style, simple webpage to what it is today. With that, much information is becoming newly available for users on the web.

All of this is to say that the knowledge the general internet has on our tribe will evolve and expand with time, and we must be ready for that. For anyone who is watching this article, I thank you for being willing and committed to preserving our history on a more accessible level.

However, if you are not part of the tribe, your information will be quite limited, especially if you've never visited the grounds. Everything down to our health center has many in real life informational plaques and people who know a lot of history, and we simply don't have that online as a resource.

Make sure to listen to our tribe about our history and culture, and don't be afraid to reach out. Give us respect and we will respect you in return.

Thank you. 3rdEditor (talk) 21:53, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

Why "Eastern"?
To add to this article: why they're called the "Eastern" Shawnee Tribe when they're located in the Midwestern part of the United States. Also, if they're the "Eastern" Shawnee, is there a "Western" Shawnee tribe, as there are both Eastern and Western Cherokee? This should be explained clearly and thoroughly in this article, if we purport to be encyclopedic. 98.123.38.211 (talk) 01:17, 1 May 2024 (UTC)


 * It’s because we are the group of the three federally recognized Shawnee tribes that is furthest east in our current homelands of Oklahoma, after forced removals from our reservations. 173.66.14.45 (talk) 17:52, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
