This trope is not about portrayals of Indians that depart from the norm. Rather, its examples are about one particular trope - the Magical Native American.

The description mentions a few other tropes related to Native Americans, but they don't pop up in the examples. And the article only has 9 wicks, 1 inbound. I say merge with Magical Native American.

I have problems with Magical Native America too. It's a snowclone of Magical Negro, yet it isn't the Native America subtrope of that - it's a separate trope about Native Americans literally being magical.

Wow. For some reason this trope name strikes me as offensive to an unusual degree.

I support merging with Magical Native American.

Magical Native Amerian may have problems as a name, but it's a more established trope than this one, so we should merge this there. Later, we can discuss editing that page.

Yeah, merge. They're identical.

Done. If you want to move/merge the discussion, go for it.
