17232, 17234 |   |   | REASSIGN ONE SONG (Song ID 9840) TO THE GJB SOCIETY 17234 "Netsilik", and rename that society "Qikiqtaaluk Inuit" with alternate names "Inuit of the Qikiqtani (Qikiqtaaluk) region, Qikiqtani Inuit, Qikiqtaalungmiut, Kittoktangmiut, Netsilik". REASON: 9840 has exact same lat long, and singer, as 9831 and 9841 (belonging to culture 17234, currently named "Netsilik" (but should be renamed Qikiqtaaluk Inuit)). -- | -- | -- | -- 17232 |   |   | RENAME: Nunatsiarmiut (*not*, Nunatsiaqmiut), keep all songs except 9840. This should have lat long of Cape Dorset, Baffin Islanders (see lat long for all songs but 9840, assign this as the Culture lat long) 17234 |   |   | ASSIGN song ID 9840 from 17232; rename as above. 17234 |   |   | Adjust society lat long so that it falls in Sanikiluaq, Belcher Island, where recordings were made (use song lat long for 9840) 17234 |   |   | Language match: From Wikipedia: "The South Baffin dialect (Qikiqtaaluk nigiani, ᕿᑭᖅᑖᓗᒃ ᓂᒋᐊᓂ) is spoken across the southern part of Baffin Island, including the territorial capital Iqaluit." This is also the region to which the Belcher Island belong (and the community of Sanikiluaq, where the recordings with song ID 9840, 9841, and 9831 were made). The best match is probably sout3269 (South Baffin Inuktitut), which is a dialect of Baffin Inuktitut (baff1241), itself a dialect of Eastern Canadian Inuktitut (east2534). However, for now, leave with language-level match "east2534"

Society 17234 has Parlametrics data, for which the language is listed as Inuinnaqtun (with dialect listed as Netsilik), and the people listed as Netsilik. Now that we have changed 17234 to Qikiqtaaluk Inuit with language Eastern Canadian Inuktitut, the Parlametrics data doesn't quite match. Should I create a separate Netsilik society for the Parlametrics data? According to wikipedia, ""The Netsilik's spoken language is Natsilingmiutut."" However, both Natsilingmiutut and Inuinnaqtun are dialects of Western Canadian Inuktitut, so perhaps that could be the language assigned to a new Netsilik society if created. -- Stella

There is another reason to create a Netsilik society: see theglobaljukebox/cantometrics#117.
