Using the term "costume" for Indigenous clothing worn by Indigenous Americans is offensive. The term might have different connotations outside of the US, but within the US, it's not appropriate for traditional Indigenous clothing, especially ceremonial clothing. [[:Category:Native American dance regalia]] and [[:Category:Native American clothing]] are sufficient for Native American dress. [[:Category:Clothing of indigenous peoples of the Americas]] covers all non-US indigenous peoples of the Americas. Other members of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Greenland|WikiProject Greenland]] could probably speak to the category [[:Category:National costumes of Greenland]]. -[[User:Uyvsdi|Uyvsdi]] ([[User talk:Uyvsdi|talk]]) 00:35, 28 March 2013 (UTC)Uyvsdi
