Is there a way of switching that to something like recording
knowledge/teachings while working together? "Making" conflicts with no
original research,

It is a proper noun though. It isn't as if the compound parts of it
are really English words (wiki probably is these days but pedia is
Greek if it is anything). Just avoid refernces to a creator (risks
anoying athiests) and Cherokee people (since non Cherokee people who
speak the langauge are of course welcome).
