Information removed from entry[edit]

"Most Apachean people prefer to call themselves Inde, their autonym, meaning "Apache" or "person" in their language of Mescalero." 71.66.97.228 04:50, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No, each band of Apache has its own [autonym. The Tonto Apache call themselves Dilzhéʼe; the Western Apache call themselves Nṉee; the White Mountain Apache call themselves Dzil Łigai Siʼán Ndee; the Beaver call themselves Dunne; the Slavey call themselves Dene; the Jicarilla Apache call themselves Abáachii; and there are many other groups and many other names. —Stephen (Talk) 07:05, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

So en:WP is wrong? Someone who is knowledgeable should correct that article, then. 71.66.97.228 16:15, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Problem with common noun[edit]

We have two basically identical senses: "a people" and "a person belonging to the people". The common noun should just have "a person", and the same word as a possible plural. I can't clean it up because of the translation tables. Equinox 03:44, 25 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
