Talk:Human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup

message: The Human taxonomy classification insertion into the Haplo group tree box looks messy, amateur and off topic. What would be better would be if it could be changed into the Haplogroups for the other species of Hominoidae.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.6.115.62 (talk) 10:23, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

message: I have put up a suggestion at :Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals to create a new WikiProject, WikiProject: Genetic History.
To quote from what I've written there:
:; Description: A wikiproject for articles on DNA research into genetic genealogy and genealogical DNA tests; the history and spread of human populations as revealed by eg human Y-chromosome and mitochondrial DNA haplogroups; and similar.  Many such articles can be found in :Category:Genetic genealogy and its subcategories, notably the subcategories on human haplogroups.
:; Rationale
:* My direct motivation for seeking this Wikiproject was a recent run-in at Y-chromosomal Aaron, where I desperately missed the lack of a relevant WikiProject talk page to go to, to attract the input, advice and views of knowledgeable editors in this area.  
::There's a lot of general public interest in the proposed subject area -- eg the Y-chromosomal Aaron page is apparently getting well over 100 hits a day, and over the last 18 months or so there's been a lot of material added, by a fair number of different editors, mostly editing different pages which are particularly relevant to them.  IMO, a central wikiproject would be useful, and also a good place to be able to bring WP:OR, WP:V, and WP:general cluelessness issues for wider informed input. 
:::Wikipedia:WikiProject Molecular and Cellular Biology and :Wikipedia:WikiProject Evolutionary biology do already exist, but their focus is much much broader.  With regard to those project's charters, I believe the subject would be seen as a rather specialist niche topic area, rather out of the mainstream of those project's normal focus.  On the other hand, I believe that there are a number of wikipedia editors (and readers) who are specifically interested in the subject, who would find advantage if there were a specific wikiproject for it.

message: There seems to be an inconsistency. In the map there is a reference to both E3b and ExE3b groups, however in the article there is a reference to E1b1b formerly E3b. Does E3b still exist? In such case the article should include it. Was the E3b regrouped to E1b1b? Then the map is outdated. Alchaemist (talk) 04:29, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

message: I believe there are several nomenclature errors in this article.  Admittedly, the Y-C Consortium nomenclature is confusing, but this article is ... confused!
> "Haplogroup NO (M214) 35-40 ka (minimal distribution)"
NO includes N, O and NO*.  The comment about minimal distribution applies to NO*, not the inclusive NO.
Similarly
> "Haplogroup P (M45) (minimal distribution)"
Again, P includes Q, R, and P*.  The comment about "minimal distribution" applies to P*.
(And similarly for K.)
The article subdivides K into K1, T (formerly K2), K3, K4, S (formerly K5), K6, K7.
Nonsense!  When K2 and K5 were renamed, K3 etc. were renumbered.  Confusing?  Yes.  The solution is to mis-match old names and new names?  No.
> "Groups descended from Haplogroup K (LT)"
Has a new UEP been discovered that is shared by L, M, NO, P, S and T but not K1, K2, K3, etc.?  If not, the term "LT" appears to be a local invention that is *not* compliant with Consortium nomenclature.  A similar comment applies to the article's invention of "GT."

This site could add a good deal of well organized and relevant content to this article (including interactive visualizations, downloadable databases, and a research aggregator).

message: This is part of the opening sentence of this article:
In human genetics, a human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup is a haplogroup defined by differences in the non-recombining portions of DNA from the Y chromosome (called Y-DNA)...
The phrase includes an implication that some portion of the Y chromosome consists of combining DNA. Is the implication correct? If not should non-recombining be removed from the phrase since all the DNA in the Y chromosome is non-combining? Davefoc (talk) 02:00, 11 July 2016 (UTC)

message: I am surprised, that Nibiruans and Dravidians are/were not D bearers. Previously thought so. H and J looks like possible, but I bearers, in my opinion, travelled north from what is modern Indus Valley, over Caspian Sea, to Ural Mountains, where they met ice. Then they moved to Europe (I2), later to Scandianavia, only after LGM (I1). There are no enclaves of I on Near East, but there are G, so hypothesis of Anatolian rout of I migration to Europe is in my opinion false. Looks like mister K lived in what is now China, so called "Indoeuropeans" are Siberians in real. 
Out of Africa theory: in my opinion mister CF and mister DE both lived in Africa before their descendants leaved  continent, not out of Africa. C  and D appears not only on East, but also among Cro Magnons in Europe, presumably they reached Europe through Spain from West Africa, so this is hard to believe, that they moved from India to Europe only after leaving Africa. Also a lot of E among Bantu people, not only Afro-Asians, this looks like in African context - as I know, in Eurasiatic gene pool there are Neanderthal genes, but not in Bantu populations. So, Natufian culture was of African origin (and I mean fresh from Africa, because we are all from Africa), together with G bearers from Anatolia inspiring both Sumer and Egypt - quite important for me, because I am working on fantasy universe based on these events, according to what mister A told to mister B.
Another riddle is proto-Semitic region, because looks, like Natufian E bearers were close cousins, but not ancestors of proto-Semits, presumably also E. One possibility is Sahara, second is Yemen from pre-Punt, pre-Kush, whatever name is proper, I cannot deduce it. Katepano (talk) 14:30, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

message: The maps used on this page are seriously problematic.  Compare the map of group F with the map of group R farther down the page and see where the two put F - one in Arabia (recent consensus), the other in India (which was proposed in the 1990s, pre-aDNA, and is now largely only propounded by Indian nationalists and people very far behind or biased in their reading on the subject), with a resulting difference in depicting the origins of all of the F lineage, both in these maps and in the global map (made by the same editor as the F map), which is entirely without reference and seems rife with Original Research.  As much as maps can be a help to understanding, it is better not showing maps than showing maps that directly contradict each other, and contradict current consensus.
