Talk:Wounded Knee Occupation

Independent Oglala Nation

@Nikkimaria Could I ask why you believe the infobox on the independent oglala nation "does not belong here at all" Genabab (talk) 11:56, 21 April 2025 (UTC)

This is the article about the event, so the event template is more appropriate. Nikkimaria (talk) 23:58, 21 April 2025 (UTC)

@Nikkimaria The issue is, the reason it belongs here is because it is appropriate for the section talking about the creation of the independent oglala state. If not here, where else would the state infobox be? Genabab (talk) 10:26, 22 April 2025 (UTC)

If the state is notable, in a dedicated article. Nikkimaria (talk) 23:42, 22 April 2025 (UTC)

That's not how other articles handle it. Take the page for the history of Libya under Gaddafi. It has two different state infoboxes contained within it. So precedent dictates that the state infobox should be used here.

+ Its important to include as it demonstrates the seriousness of what was being done in Wounded Knee by showing that such a state was created. Removing it serves to minimise the history of Wounded Knee and its occupation Genabab (talk) 02:41, 23 April 2025 (UTC)

That article would benefit from being edited too. Nikkimaria (talk) 03:49, 23 April 2025 (UTC)

Okayy. What about the rest? Like, the 2nd half of the point. @Nikkimaria Genabab (talk) 10:55, 23 April 2025 (UTC)

As above, if the state itself is notable, it should get an article - that would demonstrate its seriousness. Nikkimaria (talk) 23:33, 23 April 2025 (UTC)
