Lacking a reservation

Hi, this is great work on the map image, but one tiny tribe and reservation in western Michigan are missing: Lac Vieux Desert Band of Lake Superior Chippewa, whose Lac Vieux Desert Indian Reservation is in Watersmeet Township of southeastern Gogebic County, on the border with Wisconsin in this western area of Michigan. They have a casino there. Tribal members make up a large proportion of students in the township high school, and its basketball team was featured in a 2007 8-part documentary, Nimrod Nation, shown on the Sundance Channel. With support from Robert Redford, the film won a Peabody Award.Parkwells (talk) 14:48, 23 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Error on map

The Nottawaseppi Huron Indian Reservation location on the map is incorrect. It has been placed too far north and too far east of its actual location.

This reservation is in southwestern Calhoun County, which in the second rank of counties above the southern border of Michigan and is the third county east of Lake Michigan. On a map of Michigan, Calhoun County's eastern border is directly above the short vertical break in the latitude of the southern border of Michigan. Since the reservation is in the southwest part of the county, it should be placed well to the west of that vertical break.

I'd change it but I don't know how and don't have time available to learn how to do it. --Wikifan2744 (talk) 21:30, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
