Copying licensed material requires attribution edit

Hi. I see in a recent addition to Turkic peoples you included material from a webpage that is available under a compatible Creative Commons Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa (talk) 13:19, 7 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia and copyright edit

  Hello Onche de Bougnadée, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to Xiongnu have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

  • You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
  • Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
  • We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. All other images must be made available under a free and open license that allows commercial and derivative reuse to be used on Wikipedia.
  • If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
  • Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 15:07, 18 October 2020 (UTC)Reply


ANAs, ANAEs edit

Looking at your source [1]... is the only real difference the fact that the Shandong samples should be included in the list of ANAs (and in the map consequently)? I have not seen Shandong mentioned much in the literature: is it reliable? पाटलिपुत्र (Pataliputra) (talk) 14:52, 5 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hello, don't only read my source but also the first source that was already there. Ancient Northeast Asian doesn't stand for hunter-gatherers from the Baikal to the Far-East Russian region at all, it's an imaginary definition that contradicts with the references and that is completely off the mark. It actually includes the whole northern half of East Asia.
Modern-day Northeast Asian popualtions includes Tungusic, Mongolians, Nivkh, Turkic as well as Han Chinese, Korean and Japanese populations...

Incorrect, ANEA is a different and broader concept, not a single ancestry, but rather including Amur ancestry (ANA), Liao River ancestry, and Yellow River ancestry (although Yellow River includes some ASEA ancestry too). I just added the clarification that our article refers specifically to Amur ancestry. It does not cover Liao river or Yellow river ancestries. Please don't make misleading edits based on personal interpretations. You may discuss a renaming of the article, but I don't think this is necessary at all.Wikiuser1314 (talk) 15:17, 5 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
Hi, I don't agree at all.
You are yourself confusing the concepts of Amur ancestry and ANA/ANEA that are completely unrelated and based on your own interpretation. The article clearly used the concept of ANEA by using the "Human evolutionary history in Eastern Eurasia using insights from ancient DNA" study from 2020 as its first and primary source to define ANA. I wouldn't call this "personal interpretation" but rather common sense.
Therefore, a new article about Amur ancestry should be created.

No..., see "DNA analysis divided the four Shichengzi samples into two groups, with one group primarily harboring the ancient Northeast Asian (ANA) related ancestry, while the other showed a dominant Late Neolithic Yellow River (YR_LN) related ancestry."[1] ANA is distinct from the broader ANEA. No need to create a new article, rather a clarification on the ANEA. ANA is differentiated from ANEA or Yellow River ancestry, another example:"These three groups have a similar genetic profile, deriving ~80% of their ancestry from a gene pool related to the Middle Neolithic individuals of the Yangshao culture sites of Wanggou and Xiaowu in the Central Plain (ca. 4000-3000 BCE; YR_MN) and the remaining ~20% from the Ancient Northeast Asian (ANA) gene pool related to Neolithic-era hunter-gatherers from the Devil’s Gate Cave site of the Russian Far East (“DevilsCave_EN”)28,32."[2]-Wikiuser1314 (talk) 15:30, 5 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
So the issue was the article itself that merged ANEA and ANA concepts.
A new article would be better imo, and the passage "They are inferred to have diverged from Ancient East Asians about 20kya ago," should be deleted since it has nothing to do with ANA. Onche de Bougnadée (talk) 15:41, 5 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Onche de Bougnadée and Wikiuser1314:I have tried to start the Ancient Northern East Asian (ANEA) article. You are welcome to improve! पाटलिपुत्र (Pataliputra) (talk) 04:49, 11 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

I would like to add something. Without regard to the proposed linguistic theory in these papers that is controversial, it has been suggested that the Western Liao River farmers were actually also of Amur ancestry and that they gradually received Yellow River gene flow over time.
[3][4] The boundaries between the different ANEA sub-groups seem to be blurred. Onche de Bougnadée (talk) 03:02, 13 May 2023 (UTC) Onche de Bougnadée (talk) 03:02, 13 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
