[edit] Ohio General Assembly

I'm going to have to revert the edits that effectively dismiss the URB's claim to recognition. The editor employed no source material in denying that the General Assembly has the power to legally recognize Native American tribes. Without this source material, the edit smacks of POV. -- SwissCelt 13:07, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] To the editor at 64.136.27.229

Your edits to this article are incredible; literally, they are impossible to believe. Your allegations that Hawk Pope is suing the tribe are unfounded, as no source can be found to collaborate. Neither the Bellefontaine Examiner nor WPKO-FM report any such court filings, which they surely would have done if such a thing had happened. I can do a more thorough search at the Logan County, Ohio courthouse on Monday; but frankly, a responsible editor would have done the search already before making such a claim. At the very least, you should have provided a citation less ambiguous than "the court records in Logan Co. Oh".

As for the claim that the Zane Shawnee Caverns have reverted to their former name, that is patently false. I'd even go so far as to characterize it as a hoax. Please don't add hoaxes to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. -- SwissCelt 02:43, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Flag and stuff

Even though there are some disputed edits (below- that I have no part of), this tribe, or organization however it should be properly called, apparently does exist and has an identity, an organization, some kind of government (laws and bi-laws, etc- I would suppose), possibly a flag, etc- please, this is interesting stuff here, could someone please post some interesting general facts about this body of people as it is the only "tribe" even close to where I live (Cincinnati). The article seems sparse at best. Personally, I have Native American Indian decent ( 1/8th Cherokee and some blood from another "assimilated tribe" that my family lost the name of generations ago) and am interested in local Native culture as this could be my distant relation. Thanks.
