Hi Matt,

My name is Joseph. It's nice to meet. Hope all is going well!

Hello! I was just stopping by to mention that I feel like there would be a more concise way to mention the Navajo language and what other names it is known by. As well as maybe adding more information as a summary. Thank you!! Xcheonsa (talk) 01:14, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

Hi Matt, this is Hager. I wanted to just make a few comments on your lead. I think you should add where the language is spoken originally, what other names the language is known by, and how many people speak it today. Hs601 (talk) 13:50, 7 April 2017 (UTC)

Hello Matt, I appreciated your paragraph and your turns of phrase that emphasize the strength of culture within the region but I'm concerned the opinion might come of as bias in a Wikipedia article. We should strive to report neutral information about the topics we encounter. While the determination of the culture is certainly something to highlight the reader should not feel as if they are reading an advertisement or commendation of the tribe. Rather, accurate facts surrounding the inherent tenacity of the Dine speaking people should be presented equally alongside evidence of their hardships and struggles. I look forward to coming back to this article and learning more about these people and the efforts to revitalize their language. Knycsuth (talk) 19:45, 7 April 2017 (UTC)
