Earning UA miles on TK codeshare on LH metal?

Hello, I'd like to fly SFO-IST. The Turkish website offers SFO-MUC-IST-MUC-SFO with SFO-MUC and MUC-SFO codeshare operated by LH.

The codeshare segments are in "W" class. Apparently UA gives NO credit for TK "W" class, but it does for LH "W" class.

In the case of the codeshare, does the TK or the LH mileage earning policy apply here?

The earning policy within Star Alliance goes by operating carrier, so in this case it would be LH. It's not said that the W class also maps into W class at LH. You might check with LH in what class your ticket is booked to be sure.
