You looked up dichotomy on wikipedia because of this and put it on VFD didnt you? lol (I dont appreciate that - I created that entry) Bensaccount 04:37, 14 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Not exactly. I looked at your contributions, and when I got to dichtomoy, I put it on VfD. Stewart Adcock 01:36, 16 Mar 2004 (UTC)

(to Bensaccount) Please note that I am not saying that there is nothing of value in your proposal. Rather, I am just saying that the version that was hammered out by several people with all kinds of expertise is significantly better. Peak 05:54, 16 Mar 2004 (UTC)

This is not a zero-sum game Bensaccount 18:36, 17 Mar 2004 (UTC)

I dont think we need a second paragraph yet (see wikipedia: define and describe. Bensaccount 18:32, 18 Mar 2004 (UTC)

The proposed second paragraph belongs under the location heading. Bensaccount 18:32, 18 Mar 2004 (UTC)

[Peak:] That is your POV, which you should not impose on others. For example, many people believe that the preamble should mention chromosomes. Since not all DNA is in chromosomes, and since not everything in a chromosome is DNA, some people felt that the connection between DNA and chromosomes could be left to a second paragraph within the preamble. This is not to say that there shouldn't be a section on "Location". That depends on how much we want to squeeze into the preamble. Peak 04:36, 18 Mar 2004 (UTC)
