[edit] Merger

This would work well as a table in human article, but doesn't really deserve it's own article. Fallsend 01:43, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

It's really already there with the taxobox, though this page does add to that by explaining what each of the sections means and what it relates to. It could be educational as an introduction to taxonomy and the evolutionary position of humans relative to other animals. This page could actually be expanded by incorporating a historical perspective on how humans were treated taxonomically in the past. It needs work, but it could be encyclopedic and worthwhile. If we keep it, it should be moved to Human taxonomy (lowercase t). --Aranae 06:29, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
