Cherokee society
This article fails verifiability and much of its content is verifiably false. Waya sahoni 06:56, 26 January 2006 (UTC)


 * KEEP - fails WP:V. Some content may be salvagable but must be reviewed by a native Cherokee or reputable Cherokee historian.  Appears to be a mixture of various native beliefs. Waya sahoni 06:48, 26 January 2006 (UTC) I withdraw this afd. Waya sahoni 07:58, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: The topic has the potential to become a worthwhile article, but needs to be looked over by an expert in the subject and seriously cleaned up.&#160;—  The KMan  talk  07:14, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I'll clean it up, but most of it's content consitutes a POV fork of other articles. Also, much of it is taken from European mythology published in early Cherokee history which does not reflect the true culture.  I can take a stab at it, as I am very familiar with Cherokee culture.

 * Keep. The nominator's confused about the Deletion policy; articles with "salvagable content" are not referred for deletion.  Instead, they are edited for improvement.  This article is well laid out, reasonably well wikified, fairly NPOV and cites some references; it should be improved via consensus editing. -Ikkyu2 07:21, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm certain the Novel "Gone with the Wind" is well layed out, Wikified, NPOV, and would also meet such a criteria, but its still a fiction Novel. Factual content is probably preffered about the culture, not cult new age theories".  Waya sahoni 07:25, 26 January 2006 (UTC)


 * I have cleaned up and verified the information and corrected the bogus writings of this author. Content now matches and complements content in other Cherokee Articles. Waya sahoni 07:58, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
