Cenin has milk and SHE ?& dad????? I play nes too, so it makes sense to market a people to make 1500 people never met the 57,000. Or a milllion. a penny is 16 dollars. So gold is in? that's the story about them.

I do not understand this comment, so I hope it is oke to ignore this comment. Carsrac (talk) 08:11, 2 June 2021 (UTC)

Notation(s)

I expected to find a section on notation, but nada. Are there any recognised international conventions or does everyone do their own thing? [TBH, I'm not really that bothered but the infobox at infinity symbol has a reference to the character U+26AD ⚭ MARRIAGE SYMBOL. That links to the huge article Marriage – where that symbol is not even mentioned. So I thought of correcting to the notation section here – but find that it doesn't exist... ] Just putting out there in case anybody feels like developing a new section here. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 00:23, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

discrimination as a motivation

This motivation for genealogy was not mentioned in the article, so I created a new section and added a short sentence to mention its famous use by the Nazis (Ahnenpass and the Mischling Test). It would be valuable to expand this section, as I suspect there are more examples besides Nazi Germany. 85.169.195.108 (talk) 17:57, 4 July 2022 (UTC)

Notation

At the lead of gender symbol, after a deprecated citation was removed, a citation is required for

In genealogy, including kinship in anthropology and pedigrees in animal husbandry, the geometric shapes △ or □ are used for male and ○ for female.

Can anyone here oblige? 𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 09:07, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
