Ethnicity of inhabitants of Dalmatian

There is no evidence from analysis of ethnic ancestry of present population of Dalmatia inffered from the Y-chromosome haplogroup distribution data to back the claim that ethnic origin of Fetivi, Boduli and Vlaji as distinct groups of people reflects different ethnic backgrounds, as the article claims. It should be removed from the article as the citations provided do no prove such a claim. Cultural differences between those groups, which are indeed prominent and discussed in the cited articles, are also largely intermixed and much more complex than what this article claims, as they involve high degree of regional specificity. 78.1.111.12 (talk) 22:04, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article doesn't claim they are distinctive ethnic identities or having different ethnic origin. However, the paragraph does seem to be poorly sourced and mention of that information - which is almost trivial - doesn't seem as a part of necessary scope of the article.--Miki Filigranski (talk) 22:47, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced, original research

Today's reverted edit caught my eye... Large parts of the article are without references, or are original research, or misrepresentation of the sources (cherry-picked data, comments nowhere to be found in the sources), etc. I've marked only a few in Special:Diff/1256323131, and am asking for proper sourcing with no original research. Because a lack of content is better than misleading or false content, unsourced content may be challenged and removed. Thank you. Ponor (talk) 10:22, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Early nineteenth century population sources

There's been some edit warring in this article and at Dalmatian Italians, the latest ones between @LukeWiller and @Visaches 37. Two "sources" are given for the 1803 Italian-speaking population:

Seton-Watson (1967). Italy from Liberalism to Fascism. Page 107.
Bartoli (1919). Le parlate italiane della Venezia Giulia e della Dalmazia. Page 16.

Seton-Watson, page 107 is about Tunis, and text search returns nothing for 1803, 33 percent etc. I was able to find several different copies of Bartoli's paper under the given title: this copy has pages numbered 194–204, this copy has pages numbered 7–23, and this copy too. I can't seem to find where Bartoli discusses any population numbers. Per WP:VERIFY and all other relevant policies, I am once again asking LukeWiller to source this material properly. Only then can the material be discussed further. Ponor (talk) 15:57, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
