Things that would be good to have

Roster of chiefs and councillors
Prominente Snuneumuxw
Snuneymuxw artists, writers etc. See Nisga'a Nation and Gitksan as to how extensive such listings can be, and for opportunities for community history. See also Wikipedia:WikiProject Local History as well as the structure/format of other First Nation/Native Amerian articles via the Indigneous People's Project link in the template above...
Map of Snuneymux territories (IRs, claims, historical sites/names)
Photos, images of Snuneymuxw culture and history and modern life etc.

Note re content

The way the indigenous Wikiproject has evolved is such that this article would be, by its title, for the Snuneymux government and its historical ones as well; inasmucb as that may not be able to be distinguished directly from articles on the people and culture and history, that's the pattern - a separate article for ethnography, and a still-separate one for language. And [I]then[/I] individual villages and communities, and prominent people, can all have their own articles. The IR histories could have things also like the dates when they were "alienated" (surveyed and "proclaimed" or whatever the legal term is; alienated is for fee-simple, when it' first "taken out of Crown Land}". I know, it' a bizarre way to talk about land and where you live, it doesn't make sense to our side either.... ;-) Skookum1 02:52, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image of totem pole in Nanaimo

This is one of the British Library collection at the Commons.....it's in Nanaimo, cant' vouch for it as having been a Snuneymuxw artist, though
