thread_title:  Matis, and Korubo 

message: It would be good to have a citation, or a link to another Wikipedia page, following this statement: "The origins of these indigenous people are still a matter of dispute. The traditional view, which traces them to Siberian migration to America at the end of the last ice age, has been increasingly challenged by South American archaeologists.", as without reference material, this is an empty claim for which there is plenty of academic material to back-up. 
The "Uncontacted Indians of Peru" source for the following statement in the "Laws and institutions" section is not a neutral source, and the reference itself only leads to the organization's home page rather than any document or article with tangible information: "The laws made to protect the indigenous people are not always respected by the Peruvian government or the companies, such as Perenco, Repsol YPF, and Petrobras,[10] who seek to explore the natural resources of their land." [11]
In the "Conflicts" section, the reference for these two generalizing statements goes to a dead end. The information itself is not supported by further explanation and would benefit from extrapolation.: "In health care, discrimination against indigenous people exists.[13] Peru has one of the highest maternal death rates of the Americas."[13] 
The “After the Spanish conquest” section could use development. Indigenous agency is mentioned but this section presents a very narrow take on the events following conquest without providing links to other pages that might extrapolate on what actually happened.  
Also, re the "After the Spanish Conquest" blip:  The sentence referring to (paraphrasing) a "massive medical campaign that saved massive numbers of indigenous and mestizo lives",  I suspect is made up of whole cloth out of somebody's imagination.  If there is ANY basis for it, it should be carefully documented. Given the state of European medicine in 1500-1600 I can not imagine of what this marvelously effective health campaign that stemmed the effects of the sudden appearance (all at once) of smallpox, typhus, influenza, measles, etc etc could have consisted.  I was a Latin American studies major back in the 1960s and 1970s, so way out of date, but I have tried to keep up and the last I read re the health effects of the conquest the thinking was that as much as 90% of the indigenous population was wiped out by disease over the first 100 years.    My general suggestion would be to get that idiotic sentence removed. 
AIDESEP and MATSES are mentioned in two different places but are both indigenous rights organizations. They could both be part of the "Political organizations" section. 
In the "Territories" section, "communal reserves" could be explained, linked to another page, or linked to an explanatory reference. 
In the "Territorial right of the communities" subsection, the wording is awkward so that it is not certain whether the laws listed are those that protect or suspend communal land rights. 
The "Conflicts" section could use much more information. The information that is there now seems sparse, and the "Territorial rights of the communities" subsection reference is 7 years old. An update on the status of the situation now would be beneficial as it seems to be ongoing. In general, there are many conflicts that have occurred between indigenous peoples and the government in Peru and this section leaves plenty of room for information to be filled in about them.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I made some minor changes to the lead section so it reads a little better. This includes some re-phrasing and small cuts to sentences that seemed leading or unneeded. I didn't do anything to add to or change the information or how it is presented. Morrailey (talk) 18:58, 26 October 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cleaning up the Lead section 

message: I combined a few sections into these two as the sections had become somewhat redundant and disorganized. I added content to both. I tried to weave in existing literature to what I added and flesh it out some. However, I did cut some larger sections of text; one section wrote about legislature that was around a decade outdated, another spoke of political institutions I could find nearly no information on. If I overstepped, please let me know, and if you have suggestions or things to add also please let me know. Morrailey (talk) 17:45, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Adding to Political Organizations and Laws and Institutions 

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Indigenous peoples of Peru's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "census2017":
From Peruvians of European descent: 
From Indigenous peoples of the Americas: 
From 2017 Peru Census: 
From Peruvians: 
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 03:29, 28 December 2020 (UTC)

replies: text: You need a collective name for the original inhabitants of the American continents. There are Europeans and Asians and Africans, etc. I believe that American Indian is the best collective noun for those original inhabitants of the Americas. "Native Americans" is confusing and inaccurate (Example: Is an American Indian born in Europe a "Native American? Is a Quechua speaker born in Asia a "Native Peruvian?")  Likewise, the word "indigenous" is disagreeable to me, as it implies "uncivilized." and also inaccurate. (If I were to call an Irishman an "indigenous person" I doubt that he would be pleased.) I'll lay down the marker here that "American Indian" is the only term with historical relevance and inclusive enough to refer unequivocally to the original people of the Americas and their descendants -- and depart this interesting discussion.Smallchief (talk) 11:41, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
