I had to go open my big mouth.

I was somewhat annoyed at [Webster 1913] for listing [Native American] peoples under plural headwords, which resulted in plural node titles. After a quick reconnoitering with fellow deities, I began the task of making these peoples, who had been in their nodes before I came here, migrate once again.

Webster seems to have put MOST Native American tribes under plural headwords. After an hour of excruciating lag, I managed to get a dozen or so:

[Comanche], [Paducah]
[Apache]
[Choctaw]
[Chickasaw]
[Creek], [Muskogee], [Uchee], [Seminole]
[Pawnee], [Loup]
[Ute]
[Shawnee], [Kickapoo]
[Ottawa]
[Sac], [Sauk]
[Fox]
[Huron]
[Wichita]
[Navajo]
[Winnebago]
[Nez Perce]
[Onondaga]
[Oneida]
[Cayuga]
[Tuscarora]
[Delaware]
[Wyandot]

(kept and firmlinked [Blackfeet])

([Mohawk] was singular to begin with)

(someone had already done [Seneca])

(can't decide what to do with [Kansas])

I let myself in for extra work, reparenting several writeups from a singular-titled node to the plural-titled node, then deleting the singular title and renaming the plural back to the singular. For some reason I felt it was important to have the nodeshell "created by" link say [Webster 1913]. Dont ask me why.

I feel filthy after handling some of the nastiest, most racist writeups we have.
