Talk:Haplogroup R (Y-DNA)

message: The principle of cloning the R1a and R1b article into this one is fundamentally flawed as they constantly need to be synchronized. There's very little point in having the full text in several places. I'm going to remove all the text, apart from the intros, for the groups and keep the links to the main articles. --Denoir 22:44, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Article cloning

message: I've just removed this absurd sentence from the page:
: Ancient European legends often report a Scythian origin for the royal families of Europe, which may be the source of the slight distribution of R1a in western and southern Europe.
This statement is absurdly non-specific (does the author have any idea how many royal families there are in Europe?).  Every trace level of some haplogroup in an otherwise largely distinct population can be explained by recourse to some obscure legend, but this doesn't mean we ought to mention it unless there's at least some reason to believe it was true. --Saforrest 06:14, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't like the article. For example, the whole passage about R1b1 should start with the notion about the change of nomenclature (R1b3>R1b1]. Each haplotype should get its own paragraph. This article is somewhat messy. 82.100.61.114 13:58, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Better sourcing, lots of crazy claims 

message: This seems like a bit of a case of misleading vividness to have females of an ethnicity pictured in reference to Y-DNA of that particular people, doesn't it? Nagelfar (talk) 14:24, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Image of "sorb national costume" 

message: In place of Origin, I avoided using nations because they distract from pinpointing the geographic origin & gives a nationalistic flavor to the article. Cadenas2008 (talk) 02:03, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

message: The 2006 ISOGG tree is quite out of date. Haplogroups need to be updated to conform with the 2009 tree at http://www.isogg.org/tree/ISOGG_HapgrpR09.html. Crummyusername (talk) 17:19, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
