"Narrative"

I think that's a notoriously inappropriate name for oral traditions. Maybe "mythology" or "Ancient Tongan religion"? Narrative just sounds so non-specific.--189.127.29.141 (talk) 22:05, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, Tongan Narrative also isn't very searchable, "Tongan Mythology" would fit much better for the general need of trying to make this information available and accessible, the only issue is that I don't know how to change it. Leileiday (talk) 21:13, 5 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

References

I've been trying for a little while to try and find the sources listed for this article online so that I could see where some of the information was coming from and maybe insert those citations into the existing article, but I haven't been able to find a single one, I suspect they may be a part of a more private collection of old or scholarly books, which is fine, but we should include more links or sources that people can actually access or at least search for.

Just placing the original sources here for future reference because I'm planning on rewriting the article from the ground up most likely with different sources. Leileiday (talk) 23:18, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
