Evolutionary biology B‑class Mid‑importance

	Evolutionary biology portal This article is part of WikiProject Evolutionary biology, an attempt at building a useful set of articles on evolutionary biology and its associated subfields such as population genetics, quantitative genetics, molecular evolution, phylogenetics, and evolutionary developmental biology. It is distinct from the WikiProject Tree of Life in that it attempts to cover patterns, process and theory rather than systematics and taxonomy. If you would like to participate, there are some suggestions on this page (see also Wikipedia:Contributing FAQ for more information) or visit WikiProject Evolutionary biologyEvolutionary biologyWikipedia:WikiProject Evolutionary biologyTemplate:WikiProject Evolutionary biologyEvolutionary biology
B	This article has been rated as B-class on Wikipedia's content assessment scale.

Two versions of the Evolution Cannot Create Information argument

There are two different versions of this argument. One claims there are nop known processes that can increase the amount of data in a chromosome, that the number of nucleotides in DNA should have remained stable since the origins of life. Responses to this arguments include chromosome duplication errors (such as in Down syndrome), viral transfers, etc. The other version claims that the amount of INFORMATION (not data) in the chromosomes cannot increase by evolution. Arguments against this include those listed in the article, such as the effect of random mutations being filtered by the environment. I think the article should mention both.

Find a significant source (ICR/AiG/etc) for the former claim (per WP:V) and we'll include it. Hrafn^Talk_Stalk 04:04, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. Good stuff. Find some references, both creationist and anticreationist if possible, and we will run with it.--Filll (talk) 05:05, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bias

I am not trying to push anything but Wikipedia is not intended to be bias, this page is written in the voice that anti-evolutionary is a rare, radical and completely ludicrous cult. It is not, aproxximately half of the world believes that creationism is the origin of life and we do not have the write to feed theories as fact in a non-bias encyclopedia. I know this is one of the most offensive subjects known and its hard to write about without expressing opinion. For Wikipedia. Derek Yoda's friend (talk) 06:31, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
