I reverted the recent edits because they were not in the cited sources, except for La Flecha, which I have added into the article.

Comments - particularly around reliable, secondary sources:

  • Palo Flechado Pass is a Taos Mountain Trail waypoint? — I cannot find anything for the search query on Taos Pass or Palo Flecado Pass using the word waypoint - nor a reliable source using this query without waypoint.
  • By the way, Taos Mountain Trail should be the link versus Taos Mountain Trail, which is a link to the mobile version of the page. If someone is in mobile mode, they will get routed to the mobile version of the page.
  • Palo Flechado Pass is a Great Divide mountain pass? — From this map of the Continental Divide, which shows Hopewell Campground on the continental divide on 64, Palo Flechado Pass looks to be about 69 miles from the Continental Divide.
  • In addition, Great Divide links to a disambiguation page. So, what is needed is the specific article that is relevant here, which I believe is Continental Divide of the Americas, which can be piped to Great Divide, but isn't it generally called the Continental Divide? Piping the name in would look like this [[Continental Divide of the Americas|Great Divide]] or [[Continental Divide of the Americas|Continental Divide]], which would be reflected as Great Divide or Continental Divide.
  • Brackets were put around Flecha de Palo, to create a link. Two things, it shouldn't include the comma, and it's best not to add a link unless there are other uses or an intention to create an article. Otherwise, it just creates a dormant red link. From a search of Wikipedia, this is the only article that uses that name, per this query.–CaroleHenson (talk) 06:20, 3 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
    • If your interested in working on something to add to the article about the Apaches article about the Flecha de Palo band, I would be happy to help with that. I'm not sure that it warrants its own article. I did a fair amount of work (126 edits) on Jicarilla Apache in my first year of Wikipedia and would be happy to work on it, though, if you think that there is enough material for its own article.–CaroleHenson (talk) 06:51, 3 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
