# Talk:Zebedee Nungak

Ornithoptera, I was going add a Template:Backwards copy notice to this talk page per your GAN note, but I glanced at the source and a lot of it is different from the Wikipedia article. For posterity, could you point out which part was copied over? Thebiguglyalien (talk) 03:02, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi Thebiguglyalien! Thank you so much for reaching out. I was primarily concerned with some lines that may potentially cause a hit on Earwig, but I was covering all my bases and addressing them before any copyvio concerns were raised. If the article is sufficiently different then I see no concern, but I wanted to be safe and address it regardless. When I had initially read through the article I noticed some passages were similar which was why I brought the matter up. Ornithoptera (talk) 23:31, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
Just swung by with the same comment; Earwig makes it clear that the current version does not have much in similarity with the Canadian Encyclopedia article (25% match, and many of those are names or titles). — Chris Woodrich (talk) 01:43, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
I've removed that note from the {{GA nominee}} template; thanks all for checking. Reidgreg (talk) 23:01, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

Regarding the statement The three children, chosen due to their high test scores, were taken from their homes without their families' consent. This source – APTN News 'Experimental Eskimos' hope change of government leads to recognition and compensation April 2017 – predates most of the other news pieces on the Experimental Eskimos, and in it the subject states that he wasn't selected through IQ test and that his parents were supportive. I feel that should be included, unless there's a reason not to use it. – Reidgreg (talk) 21:20, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

A key detail that the article itself notes was that the families did not have informed consent of the children's involvement in an experiment. While they may have been supportive, they were not made aware of the context for which this program entailed. In addition, the article notes that the government "just told them they were going." Honestly, the article's absence was not an intentional exclusion, if you were assuming as such, I had just not come across it when I was doing my research. Regardless, I appreciate you making me aware of it Reidgreg. I have adjusted some of the new information accordingly. Ornithoptera (talk) 04:02, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
