Welcome to Gobonobo's talk page. I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your talk page (or the article's talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or let me know where specifically you'd prefer the reply.

Hi, this is Ping from the meetup! Let's keep in touch. Pingnova (talk) 23:44, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ping. Yes, let's. It was nice to meet you. I hope you got to go to Hmongtown Marketplace. My co-worker referred to that one as the 'old school' market as there's another in St. Paul that I've never been to- maybe it was Hmong Village? I've been meaning to work on some articles related to my Ojibwe course, like Midewiwin, but I would love to collaborate on Dakota/Hmong topics as well. gobonobo ^{+ c} 23:58, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was able to get to the market, yes! Hmong Village is the new-er one (2009, same year Hmongtown changed its name), I hope that will be my next article. I'm also interested in Ojibwe topics, I just tend to keep a narrow focus to keep my ADHD in check, and so I've been sticking with Dakota. You might be interested in List of Minnesota placenames of Native American origin - I have been attempting to fully source that list and don't know as much about the Ojibwe!
