[edit] Title is archaic: should be merged or deleted
Nearly all content here is from vintage Catholic Encyclopedia write-ups, and whatever is here is covered in or could be added to Kwakwaka'wakw and Nuu-chah-nulth and related articles (Oweekyala language, Haisla, Heiltsuk etc). "Wakash Indians" can be a redirect, but it's not a proper name for an article - partly because this term is no longer used, and two or more distinct groups are involved; on old BC maps Vancouver Island is even shown as "Wakish Nation" (irrespective of the Straits Salish on its SE) but this, also, is very archaic. I wasn't sure to put a merge tag here or a delete one; some material may be useful elsewhere, so "merge" seemed the best option...but merge to WHAT, exactly? Nuu-chah-nulth, Makah, Kwakwaka'wakw, Haisla, Heiltsuk or Oweekyala??
