Edit to Weeki Wachee Spring
I reverted your edit to Weeki Wachee Springs because the name of the linked article is "Seminole Indians", not "Seminole Native Americans". Please note that the term "Indian" applied to Indigenous peoples of the United States is generally acceptable in Wikipedia. - Donald Albury 10:49, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

 * "Native American" is a term invented by the U.S. government to refer to people who self-identify as descendants of people indigenous to the Americas (other than Inuits (Eskimos) and Aleuts, who are called "Alaskan Natives" by the government). Similarly, in Canada the official and common term is "First Nation". "Indian", "American Indian", and "Amerindian" are also in more or less common use, and while many descendants of indigenous peoples of the Americas do not like the term "Indian", there are some editors on Wikipedia that identify as "Indian". Wherever possible, I use the name of a specific tribe or group in articles, although there are contexts in which "Indian" is easier to fit into a narrative (and that is the term you will find in most reliable sources that are more than a few years old). BTW, I realized that the link should be to "Seminole" ("Seminole Indian" redirects to "Seminole"), and I have changed it. Donald Albury 17:52, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
