Orphaned references in Haplogroup A (mtDNA)[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Haplogroup A (mtDNA)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "YFull":

From Haplogroup N (mtDNA): YFull Haplogroup YTree v6.05.11 at 25 September 2018.
From Vietnamese people: YFull Haplogroup YTree v6.02 at 02 April 2018.
From Haplogroup Z: YFull MTree 1.01.5396 as of April 4, 2019.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 15:18, 13 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hispanic Mestizo Distinction[edit]

The article lists Hispanic over and over again. Most people do not know the definition of Hispanic. It officially refers to Spanish speaking people. People of Meso-America and South America are not only Spanish in heritage however. The majority of the population is a mixture of Spanish speaking immigrants, that blended with indigenous people. The term Mestizo is a much more accurate description, as it reflects the accurate portrayal of the genetic admixture, and such as it is, should replace the term Hispanic. The haplogroup A is Asian in origin, and would not be typically present in women from Spain and Portugal, and are present in current Western Hemisphere populations so frequently, because of the indigenous people that originally migrated from Siberia. Labeling their modern day descendants as Hispanic just because they currently speak Spanish, is again, inaccurate. Mestizo is a clearer, more accurate distinction, and the article should use the term.
