In the supplementals in this study we can see that they had dark brown and black hair (almost 100% of them), brown eyes (100%) and half had intermediate skin and the other half intermediate to dark skin and dark skin
I suggest this is added in the physical appearance section, it's the most up to date study about examining how yamnaya individuals looked (how their genes expressed) I could find

I'm gonna assume that you thought that it meant that Yamnaya were as dark as South Asians but do you realize that South Europeans also score the same results? That is misleading people because of what they consider intermediate and dark results. Intermediate-to-dark skin = South European results therefore the Yamnaya had the same skin color as South Europeans. Obviously when someone that has never seen what others score on programs such as Hirisplex they will assume that the Intermediate-to-dark = East African/South Asian type of color but that's wrong and misleading.

The supplementary information for
this paper contains several unambiguous statements about the typical Yamnaya phenotype: brown hair, brown eyes, intermediate skin, with no blondes and no blue eyes. Hopefully this is the final nail in the coffin of the Blonde Yamnaya Hoax 😁. (I think there was a predicted blonde Afanasievo though, so there must be a blonde Yamna out there somewhere...)

Yet this "study" has the same issue as all the recent "studies" who reveal coloured or black skin in the ancestry of caucasians. It does not explain where this brown people dissapeared, because you can not whiten people, you can only make their skin darker, since white is recessive and no migration can bring 100 whites for every black person. Meaning, where people are white in the "old world", they were always white. Including north Africa and middle east, where those of color today are the result of recent migration, or slavery.

What does this sentence in the article actually add?
The top section of the article (as of date of posting) contains the following paragraph:
There is now a rough scholarly consensus that the common ancestor of all Indo-European languages, with the possible exception of Anatolian, originated on the Pontic-Caspian steppe, and this language has been associated with the people of the Yamnaya culture.[13] Additionally, the Pontic-Caspian steppe is currently seen as the most likely candidate for the original homeland (German, Urheimat) of the Proto-Indo-European language, including the ancestor of the Anatolian branch.
To me, it seems like the second sentence reiterates the points of the first on, while also contradicting it by stating that no, the general consensus does not in fact exclude the Anatolian branch in this conjectured history of the origin of the Indo-European family. It's definitely possible that there are nuances here that are lost on me (and presumably others too) without the elaboration undoubtedly provided further on in the article. If that's the case, this paragraph should be rewritten to more clearly state the intended message. Otherwise, the second sentence should be incorporated into the first to avoid confusing people. In either case, this is most likely not the only occurrence of mismatched sentences in the article, so I think this article could probably benefit from a proof-read by someone more knowledgeable and specialized in this subject matter.

I have exactly the same question. While Yamnaya is associated with Proto-IE, so is also Corded-Ware. While Corded-Ware also came from this region, it does not mean, that Corded Ware evolved from Yamnaya.
It is a good custom in all other culture articles to give Genetics a paragraph of its own, instead of, as here (recently?), including it in the introduction, for which the topic is much too extensive.

new result
"However, according to Heyd, et al. (2023), the specific paternal DNA haplogroup that is most commonly found in male Yamnaya specimens cannot be found in modern Western Europeans, or in males from the nearby Corded Ware culture. This makes it unlikely that the Corded Ware culture can be directly descended from the Yamnaya culture, at least along the paternal line."
This is correct, early CWC is a remix between GAG and EARLY YAMNAJA (Dniepr-Proxy R1a) what came 2750 BCE about Bohemia to Germany middle Elbe-Saale Area (R1a-Z283), and a SECOND EXPANSION to EAST EUROPE especialy Poland, Balticum, CZ, SK.
