[edit] Comment

This is seemingly a Work of the United States Government and so not copyrighted. --Rikurzhen 23:16, Jul 12, 2004 (UTC)

Copyrights are not the only issue here. Per WP:WWIN, Wikipedia is not a mirror. -AED 07:41, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stylistic problems

Does anyone else feel this reads more like a FAQ or a press release rather than an encyclopedia? 203.34.41.43 05:30, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

Yes, I totally agree. The information is alright, but the headings are inappropriate, and a simple rewording would suffice.

It reads like a brochure; I smell a copyvio... -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ 19:45, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

The first version of the page was directly copied from a work of the U.S. gov't which is thus public domain. --Rikurzhen 19:48, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

Lots of the stuff now needs rewording to be less in the future tense, given the progress since the first version was written. Pseudomonas 11:09, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Criticism section?

One of the links, "An utter refutation of the 'Fundamental Theorem of the HapMap", heavily criticize the projects foundations. Perhaps a section regarding this criticism should be created, rather by someone who is qualified enough to completely understand the criticism (Rikurzhen?). Elamere 11:20, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
