Talk:Kanesatake

Editing tag added
There are several articles relating to Kanesatake that are drastically in need of attention due to issues of NPOV and general style problems. These include the following:
 * John sha ko hen the tha Harding - Article in need of clean-up that has NPOV problems and is about a series of incidents rather than John Harding . Text moved here.
 * Steven Bonspille - Stub that has POV problems (albeit abridged), similar to the above.
 * James Gabriel - Well written article; not about its subject.

Discussion at Talk:John sha ko hen the tha Harding describes the problem in some detail. There is a proposal to merge that article or some of its content with Kanesatake, Quebec. I'm proposing to do that and then edit the whole mess. Sunray 01:08, 6 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Most of the text from the John sha ko hen the tha Harding article has been moved to this article (Kanesatake, Quebec). It is an account by a participant and needs POV work and fact checking.  References have been added under "External links."  The John sha ko hen the tha Harding article needs biographical details.  Sunray 17:17, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

POV-check template added
Hi, I've added the template to this article, with respect to the above-mentioned NPOV issues. Not having a great deal of accurate knowledge of the subject, I don't feel comfortable making a judgement one way or the other, but the use of such words as "obsession" and "trampling rights" seem to be definite red flags to me. Thoughts from other editors and contributors are welcomed. --dragfyre 13:43, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Formerly blatantly non-NPOV
I apologize in advance for the numerous citation request tags I've placed on the article, but editors should keep in mind that properly referenced material is essential for maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia, without them the information provided is always questionable to the average reader. It goes without saying that libelous statements (especially those regarding living persons) are completely unacceptable in Wikipedia. regards Deconstructhis (talk) 15:26, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
 * No apology needed; that's what the tags are there for. It took a while, but it seems like the article has finally started to shape up. --dragfyre (talk 20:27, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

NPOV tag
The "Oka crisis" section is written with a pro-mohawk POV, and demonizing the SQ and the government of Canada. Nobody is denying that they didn't do anything wrong, but the article should be able demonstrate this without using unsourced claims nor weasel words.198.103.249.251 (talk) 20:37, 7 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Agree. There may be more sources in the main article on the Oka Crisis.Parkwells (talk) 21:35, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

"Governance"
Why the eff is "Oka Crisis" nested under this heading? Ugh. 216.208.210.178 (talk) 14:19, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
