  • GenQuest, can you add citations to the "Cherokee Regional Councils of 1794" information and the last sentence of the Peacetime section?

  • I added ALT2 – a refined version of the already approved ALT0 – and request user 3family6 to please OK; also, addressed concern of user SL93 with better wording in the article. Please ping for questions. Thanks all, GenQuest "scribble" 04:03, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
