Troops don't shatter, they break. "the troops broke and fled." Fixed it. 108.18.136.147 (talk) 23:50, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Bayard's Haplogroup

[edit]

This information seems to me to be irrelevant, extraneous information (WP:NOTSTATS). His genetics are not relevant to Bayard as a historical figure; insofar as they have any relevance to anyone, it is for the identification of his remains (which is in any case not the kind of information wikipedia hosts). The details of Bayard's genetics do not provide understanding as to who the man was, which is the subject of this article. (I am additionally not sure the Figaro article needs to be cited to back up the physical description of Bayard, already provided by the portrait and the contemporary description).

However, it may be relevant to amend the section of the article which lists his 1822 re-burial in Grenoble, apparently incorrectly - though ideally with a better source than Le Figaro and other French newspapers which picked up the story, as their own sources appear to consist only of a man claiming descent from Bayard and a figure Wiki's own source, as well as French Wiki, list as a race scientist marginalised by the broader scientific community.
