Tim, if you want to write here, stick to the writing plan I gave you.

Perhaps I should break it up a bit, I still have translation left.--[[User:Tims|TimS]] 09:59, 4 May 2007 (EDT)

Your submission was just barely good enough not to be deleted, but after 4 weeks you still didn't produce a readable article. It's not something you can toss off before lunch. Consider the possibility that you have bitten off more than you can chew.
First, explain what a gene is. You might also have to explain what a [[cell]] is, and what function [[gene]]s have within the cell, their role in [[cell division]], and what all that has to do with [[DNA]].
Secondly, no, I did not mean to launch a personal attack on you. I really think that a lot of contemporary biology is mixed up with evolution advocacy. All I meant was that I need you to sort out what is known (i.e., observed facts) from speculations about how cells and genes "began to act they way they do." You must first describe what they actually do, before you speculate on what natural forces or principles set them up (like a designer would) to start doing what they do.
Third, we need clear, readily comprehensible articles on [[molecular biology]] and [[biochemistry]]. Have you read anything by [[Michael Behe]]? Try to write as clearly as he does. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] 07:32, 28 May 2007 (EDT)
