Weird, those links for Ka:ook and the other two by it go to what I think is a Khmer language page on the Commons, which of course I can't read (whatever "ka" is before wikipedia.org...looks like Khmer to me but I'm not sure.Skookum1 (talk) 01:47, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't see it here, but "(s)yáqtsa7 (Former First Nations village" I just found while sourcing Silver River, British Columbia.  Don't know whether to bother making a (s)yáqtsa7 redirect......if so, would put that in a non-extant-so-far category Category:Former First Nations villages.Skookum1 (talk) 03:56, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Is this including "Former First Nations villages" or "Former First Nation villages" not sure which I've seen......some might say fishing or hunting camps; Caribou Hide, British Columbia was one such, though it's designated a "locality" (and is decidedly abandoned nowadays, though someone in Telegraph Creek or Dease Lake or Eddontenajon might know different. I know there's one place on the Klinaklini River that's an old "grease" camp still in use, I'll find it and see what its designation is.Skookum1 (talk) 05:09, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
 * It is not. I've added a new section to accommodate. Hwy43 (talk) 05:45, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
 * It's Dzawadi, now in the Klinaklini R article under its BC Names spelling Tsawatti`. It's also the name of Knight Inlet and the Klinaklini.  I'll get around to an article on it, with Tsawatti 1 IR redirected to it; whenever possible, IMO, community names are more important as names than the IR name, for merge/ redirect issues.Skookum1 (talk) 09:07, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I think there's another designation you'll encounter in BC Names - "Haida village"....Haina and others I think are listed that way.Skookum1 (talk) 06:28, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
 * No hits for "Haida village" in the extract I received from GeoBC. The extract however designates Haina as a locality. Hwy43 (talk) 06:45, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Hm wonder where I saw that.....know I did. don't think I used it as a ref on List of Haida villages thoughSkookum1 (talk) 07:10, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
