French and Indian War
I know it may not seem politically correct, but this war has always been (and still is) referred to as the French and Indian War. The general rule of thumb on Wikipedia is to use the term that is most commonly used by reliable sources, and I've frankly never seen it referred to as the 'French and Native American War'. Also, as another user pointed out in their revert, the term 'Native American' is generally not used in Canada, where much of the war took place. Alexius Horatius 04:35, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
 * In Canada, it's only used to refer to native peoples within the boundaries of what is now the United States; it's never used to refer to peoples who are now defined as "First Nations". Also, as it happens, "French and Indian War" is itself a purely American usage; the Canadian version if "War of the Conquest" (of New France), the British version is the Seven Years' War.Skookum1 (talk) 16:56, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
