Done Should this article be merged with Kanakas. Apollon 19:48, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose appear to be separate in terms of concept and relationship with other articles. Kanak clearly relates to New Caledonia. Paul foord 20:35, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Picture???[edit]

The picture added by Lilidor, does'nt really seem to be a kanak woman. What is the source of this picture??? Believe me, the costume and the hair dress are far to be typicaly kanak ones but look like much more african. Kanak women costume called "Robe Popiné" (Local Mother Hubbard dress style) is more like in these pictures[1], [2]. Nevers

I think it's a fake.--86.29.250.55 17:20, 27 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Religion[edit]

Maybe I'm being too sensitive, but it seems to me subtly ethnocentric to explain that "most Kanaks are Christian, but a few still follow traditional beliefs." Perhaps the article would better read "while most Kanaks today are Christian, some Kanaks follow the traditional beliefs." Also, do the traditional beliefs have names? Is/Are there (a) "Kanak religion(s)?"--Kevin (talk) 23:44, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Kanak → Kanak (disambiguation) – And redirect Kanak to Kanak peoples, as suggested below. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:23, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Kanak people is clearly the most significant topic under this name. This page should redirect here per WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT. Liam987 (talk) 22:47, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I completely agree, and support moving the dab back to Kanak (disambiguation). All other meanings are obscure, minor, or relatively partial. bd2412 T 23:52, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment can someone fix the edit history of this talk page? All the comments prior to this move request pertain to the version of the article that was histmerged to Kanak people (this page only became a dab page in 2011) -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 03:36, 20 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
