Regarding material of questionable relevance on Haplogroup D-CTS3946 and Haplogroup D-M174 pages

[edit]

I am writing concerning you addition of material from Cabrera et al. 2018 to the Haplogroup D-CTS3946 and Haplogroup D-M174 pages. Cabrera et al. concern the DE and E lineages and do not mention D-CTS3946 or D2, two lineages discovered after Cabrera's article was published. The haplogroup D-CTS3946 specifically concerns that haplogroup (its proposed origin, distributions and phylogeny). A source published before its discovery about its ancestor DE is not relevant to this topic and adding it is original research WP:OR. What Cabrera says about DE and E cannot be applied to D-CTS3946 unless it is explicitly done in the source (which it is not). For instance, in theory, DE could have come form Asia, back-migrated to African and mutated into D-CTS3946 there. Our job as editors is to summarize and report the sources, not interpret or synthesize them, or assume what their implications are (which is WP:OR. I will begin a topic on the Haplogroup D-CTS3946 Talk page to discuss this so that we might reach WP:CONSENSUS. Skllagyook (talk) 07:23, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well, but than we should mention it like that using Cabrera et al. Thus i included it. It is the same for Haber et al., which is mostly concerned with a newly found sub-group. I am open for a balanced discussion and welcome your comment here.46.125.250.56 (talk) 07:39, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Haber et al directly concerns D2 and its ancestor. I have started a topic on the Haplogroup D-CTS3946 Talk page. Let us continue the discussion there. Skllagyook (talk) 07:42, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
