What other wikipedia's do is not relevant to what the rules are here on English wikipedia. In general, we are not a genealogical source - we should not aim to present genealogical information. See WP:NOTGENEALOGY. And unsourced information is also not acceptable - please do not introduce unsourced information. And you shouldn't combine unrelated sources to produce family trees - if the sources for a subject's life do not give a four or five generation ancestral tree, then per WP:UNDUE and WP:OR, we should not combine unrelated sources to produce information that sources about a subject do not consider important about that subject. FOr David - we should report what the high quality sources provide about his ancestry The sources provided are not sources ABOUT David, they are genealogical reference books. That leaves aside the issue of using outdated sources like Burke's A Genealogical and Heraldic History of the Peerage and Baronetage, the Privy Council, Knightage, and Companionage or strictly genealogical sources like Weis (also - which edition of Weis is being referenced - there are 8 of them, after all.)

Thank you for amending the repeated citations. You have done that correctly, but that does not address the other points here in that some of the entries are not cited to Oram, and all those that are cited to Oram are already shown in the other family tree.

Thank you very much again, so I understood that ancestries shouldn't be repeated after other family trees and continue to get more experience in article editing.😊 So I think it was good to add his ancestors in tab up to king Malcolm II Dmitry Azikov (talk) 13:35, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
