- Website owners on Grand River Territory
- Worth noticing
- The sample file names the 1779 Pledge and 1784 Haldimand Proclamation as the basis for the acknowledgement.
Field notes
The file separates human-readable notes, marked with #, from “Field: value” lines intended for people and machines. It asks adopters to keep the Nation, Territory, Basis, and Posterity lines as the acknowledgement. Its territorial description specifies six miles on each side of the Grand River, from mouth to head, and the sample traces its stated basis through named historical instruments.
