An indiscriminate collection of information, fails WP:DIRECTORY. Tavix (talk) 20:46, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Merge to the references/external links section of Federally recognized tribes (and, if desired, cross-reference it from the corresponding section of List of Alaska Native tribal entities). This is just a list of the pages in the Federal Register where the list of Native American and Alaska Native tribes recognized by the U.S. government has appeared. The fact that such a list exists is notable, and the tribes on the list are notable, but the pages where the list appeared are not notable in themselves. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 17:03, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Metropolitan90's solution seems appropriate to me. Protonk (talk) 22:12, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge, per above. Did it ever occur to the author to mention the Federal Register sections in the "sources" or "bibliography" in an article about federally recognized tribes.?  The Federal Register is not copyrighted information, but a government publication paid for by tax dollars.  No need to make it sound like a big secret that can only be learned by purchasing volume 73, number 66.  Mandsford (talk) 01:52, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
