- This page is only for discussing the article itself. In any case, you'd need to find peer reviewed reports to answer your question, and there aren't any. Doug Weller talk 14:55, 10 April 2020 (UTC) Reply
Back in 2019, I added information to this page regarding analysis of the Starchild skull that had been conducted by an organization called Field Reports but the information was removed on account of the questionable reliability of the organization. PaleoLabs, the institution that allegedly performed the DNA analysis of the skull on their behalf, confirmed for me via email correspondence that the DNA analysis Field Reports asserts was performed on the skull did in fact occur. On this note, would it be appropriate for me to at least include on this page the genetic data the Field Reports study yielded from the skull if not the phenotype-based diagnoses?

- @Nezahaulcoyotl sorry, but we need reliably published sources, we don't allow emails, personal knowledge, etc. Note that this report[[https://web.archive.org/web/20170827012419/https://thefieldreportscom.files.wordpress.com/2016/08/starchild-skull-final-report.pdf [ttps://web.archive.org/web/20170827012419/https://thefieldreportscom.files.wordpress.com/2016/08/starchild-skull-final-report.pdf]] is by a young earth creationist with, if this is accurate, a load of other problems.[https://www.researchgate.net/publication/352141704_A_Degree_of_Doubt_Commentary_on_the_Alleged_Embellished_Educational_History_and_Accomplishments_of_Self-Styled_Archaeologist_Aaron_Judkins ] Also interesting is this, which we can't use, not reliably published.[http://ufotrail.blogspot.com/2014/06/dr-garry-nolan-talks-ata-starchild.html ] Doug Weller talk 12:59, 20 July 2022 (UTC) Reply
What about this?: https://thefieldreportscom.files.wordpress.com/2016/10/report.pdf It was written by Stephen Fratpietro, a geneticist who has had works of his published in peer-reviewed journals. Nezahaulcoyotl (talk) 20:00, 20 July 2022 (UTC) Reply
- Nothing from Wordpress is going to be used in the article if it hasn't also been reported in a reliable secondary source. See WP:RS, WP:SELFPUB, and WP:WEIGHT. VQuakr (talk) 20:52, 20 July 2022 (UTC) Reply
