First North AmericansFirst North Americans (novels) – Restore title with (novels). Not sure this book series is even notable, but either way we can't distinguish f- from F- in first word of titles, and "first (small f) North Americans" in books should redirect to Indigenous peoples of the Americas.

  • Oppose. There's no other article that would reasonably use the title. Indigenous peoples are rarely called "first North Americans". This article doesn't get that much traffic, so the number of people landing here who really want Indigenous peoples of the Americas must be tiny if not zero.

  • Oppose per Station1. A hatnote is in place for someone truly looking for the other topic, but it's not a common term for it. -- Tavix (talk) 17:35, 6 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose – it is rare to call the indigenous people of North America as the "first North Americans" per Station1. The hatnote will solve confusion. CookieMonster755 15:40, 11 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Merge books to series edit

The book articles are unreferenced and with no evidence of independent notability, so I support the 2017 proposal to merge here. Klbrain (talk) 06:27, 23 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
