[edit] Character displacement

I'm not sure what to make of this - it appears to be either original research or spam. Alphax ^τεχ 10:49, 8 August 2005 (UTC)

• merge to article on evolution. This appears to have some validity, but there is little content here. The links don't work, by the way. ManoaChild 12:14, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
• Cleanup/Expand or Merge with Evolution. Google search for "Character displacement" +evolution has over 10,000 hits. Eclipsed 12:26, 8 August 2005 (UTC)

I change my vote to STRONG KEEP. It's a fine stub. Eclipsed 16:25, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

• Keep and allow for organic evolution. Kappa 12:33, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Owwwww! (grin) Weak keep based mainly on Duncharris' comment below. Barno 01:41, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
• Strong keep - leave room for expansion. We have too few science articles and too many on TV shows and primary schools as it is. Google scholar has plenty of hits. The concept makes sense to this trained biologist at least. Whatever you do, Do not merge with evolution - it's far too specific for that. Dunc|☺ 16:23, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete its a lecture! Yes, there are problems with other articles being kept, but that should not be an excuse to drag down the quality of all of wikipedia. Probably falls under origional research based on the reference. If kept it really, really needs a rewrite. Vegaswikian 05:59, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

Comment: The link to Duke University lecture you mean? I added that in after the article was created, as an example of the 10,000+ pages I found on the topic. I leave it to others to find better links. Eclipsed 17:18, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

• Eh? This is a fine stub. Keep. Sdedeo 07:44, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
