Talk:Third-party reproduction

[Untitled]

The MVED link is an information source created to provide education and support for those couples who are embarking upon 3rd party reproduction. It has the same value as the other links :

National Gamete Donation Trust (UK donor recruitment charity, advising donors and intending parents on donation issues) Family Miracles Online: A site designed to offer support and information about adoption, infertility, parenting, pregnancy and surrogacy UK Donorlink (UK Voluntary Information Exchange and Contact Register for donors and donor-conceived people) Baby M Oregon Reproductive Medicine (Specializing in 3rd part reproduction, egg donation) Mothers Via Egg Donation Yahoo Group is a support forum open to women and their partners who have been, or are attempting to become, mothers through egg donation.

My intent is to have the correct information available to intended parents available on Wiki. - Marna —Preceding unsigned comment added by Marnad1963 (talk • contribs) 17:59, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Plagiarism of Introduction Paragraph

The first paragraph of this third-party reproduction page has been copied verbatim from a journal article about the topic. The source has been cited for the first sentence, after which I noticed the plagiarism.

The first paragraph has been there since 2017. The journal article you cited was only written in 2023, likely copying Wikipedia. Hyphenation Expert (talk) 02:53, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

It's also not verbatim, since there are some slight differences in the wording:

−

Third-party reproduction or donor-assisted reproduction is any human reproduction in which DNA or gestation is provided by a third party or donor other than the one or two parents who will raise the resulting child. This goes beyond the traditional father–mother model, and the third party's involvement is limited to the reproductive process and does not extend into the raising of the child. Third-party reproduction is used by couples unable to reproduce by traditional means, by same-sex couples, and by men and women without a partner.

+

Third-party reproduction refers to the use of eggs, sperm, or embryos that have been donated by a third person (the donor) to enable individuals or couples (the intended parents) with infertility to have a child. This differs from the traditional father-mother family model with no third parties involved. Third-party reproduction is also used by couples that are unable to reproduce by traditional means, same-sex couples, and men and women without a partner.

However, it is close enough that the journal article:

• Salazar, Anabel; Diaz-García, Cesar; García-Velasco, Juan Antonio (September 2023). "Third-party reproduction: a treatment that grows with societal changes". Fertility and Sterility. 120 (3 Pt 1): 494–505. doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2023.01.019. ISSN 1556-5653. PMID 36681263.
