Nuwhaha

  • Source: -"They did not speak Samish but were sometimes called 'upper Samish'" (Smith 1941)

-"These people, as I have already pointed out, should not be confused with the Samish who spoke a dialect of the Straits language. The people of duwaha or the Upper Samish instead spoke the Upper Skagit-Nisqually [archaic name for Lushootseed] group of languages." (Collins 1974)

-"The Noo-wah-ah people are often erroneously referred to as 'Upper Samish.'" (Sampson 1972)
    • ALT1: ... that the Nuwhaha people, despite sometimes being known as the "Upper Samish", do not speak the Samish language? Source: Sampson (a Swinomish historian who had both Nuwhaha and Samish ancestry) was adamant in his source (repeating several times) that the usage of "Upper Samish" for the Nuwhaha is "wrong" and "erroneous." I think it warrants inclusion in the DYK personally, but it can be removed if it doesn't fit.

  • Still needs a QPQ, but I like the first hook and the sources check out. Article appears to be in good shape and eligible, without uncited paragraphs and no evidence of copyvio. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 19:17, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
    • IIRC I have less than 5 noms but I can definitely do one! I'm wasn't sure if it was required. @Generalissima PersusjCP (talk) 19:30, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
@Generalissima: This is PersusjCP's fourth nom according to her contributions. What else does this need?--Launchballer 16:59, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
Oops!! My bad. This is good to go then. My bad, Perseus; I thought for sure you had five already. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 17:04, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
All good, haha! The one I am planning on nominating next should be my fifth! Thanks! PersusjCP (talk) 21:41, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
