ANCSA not ANSCA
[edit]How can it be ANSCA when the thing is called Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act? Shouldn't it be ANCSA? BL 16:09, 3 Sep 2003 (UTC)
- You are right, BL (I checked on the WWW). The article is now renamed. -- Heron
Conducting research
[edit]I'm conducting research to expand this & related articles on Alaska Native Regional Corporations, the village & urban corporations, the regional nonprofits, etc. If anyone else is interested in helping out, drop me a line. --Yksin 18:55, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
Question
[edit]The last sentence in your background section mentions that all Alaskans would profit. When this Settlement Act was established who was considered Alaskan? --Jules823 (talk) 16:03, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
1964 Alaska Earthquake
[edit]Background, paragraph 3, sentence 1: The 9.2 earthquake occurred 3/27/1964, not in 1968 as the article now states. -Jeanie5901 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 05:12, 29 January 2014 (UTC)
That is incorrect. A simple search would have shown otherwise. Recovery efforts took years, so the date of the earthquake has been added. Tourmeline (talk) 20:29, 6 February 2014 (UTC)T
Amendments
[edit]The original version of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act did not include provisions for education. This was brought to the attention of Alaskan representatives, who called for amendments. The state agreed to create a secondary school in any village with at least fifteen high school-aged children.
I've removed this section from the article. These educational changes did not come about as a result of amendments to ANCSA (there were amendments, not discussed here; I will attempt to add them at a later date). Rather, they were the result of a consent decree the state of Alaska signed in the so called "Molly Hootch case." See Tobeluk v. Lind. RangerRichard (talk) 23:39, 27 November 2014 (UTC)

Esther Wunnicke
[edit]Hello, I have a quick question, Esther Wunnicke, an article recently written was also involved with the ANCSA and co-authored a book "Alaska Natives and the Land" to assist the governments with the next processes. Is there a way to link her into this article at all? Daffodil Bale (talk) 19:33, 30 November 2020 (UTC)Daffodil Bale
- That sort of thing is done all the time. The problem I see is that there are plenty of notable Native people who were involved in the land claims movement and who lack articles on the encyclopedia. Therefore, mentioning her and not them might constitute undue weight. Did your instructor discuss any of that before encouraging you to start editing? I quickly glanced over that article, so I would have to look at it again to see where a link and mention would contextually fit. If she wrote a book about it, the best place might be in the "Further reading" section. However, that section appears to need a lot of cleanup. I'll get back to you if and when I can figure it out.
