Talk:Texas Cherokees

Proposed name change
This should probably be moved to Texas Cherokees, since this is an English-language Wikipedia. -Uyvsdi (talk) 17:19, 25 March 2010 (UTC)Uyvsdi

Disambiguation
There should be a clear distinction between the Texas Cherokees named in the beginning of the article, meaning the ones that fled west from the Arkansas area in the early 1800’s to what was then land claimed by Spain and later Mexico, and Cherokees that may have fled to Texas during the Civil War, and thereafter. The term “Texas Cherokees” historically refers to the group named in the beginning of the article. Many of the groups named in the section titled "legal status", have a distinct history from the former. Is this article specifically about the former group, or is it a generic article on any and all Cherokees or groups that claim Cherokee heritage that happened to have resided or currently reside in Texas?--BrokenSpectre (talk) 23:00, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
 * This was created by someone writing about an unrecognized tribe. I rewrote it to focus on actual Cherokee communities in Texas. The article encompasses both. -Uyvsdi (talk) 17:32, 24 December 2011 (UTC)Uyvsdi

Not recognized by any Mexican authority
Neither the Mexican federal government nor any statal authority recognizes any Cherokee indigenous groups. This claim is false and I have removed it. It was sourced only to the organization itself, which is not a reliable source for claims about the Mexican government.User:Maunus ·ʍaunus·snunɐw· 16:57, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
