[edit] Untitled edit

Unless somebody can add something of more significance, this page should be moved to http://wiktionary.wikipedia.org/

Why not redirect this and Primatologist to Primates, which is the right place? It is also an article that seriously needs expansion. Ortolan88

Should this line: "Before molecular biology, the father of modern taxonomy, Carolus Linnaeus, organized natural objects into kinds." refer to genus and species instead of "kinds"? I've never once see the animal kingdom grouped into "kinds" except on blogs. I didn't even see it mentioned in my Anthropology class, which covered Linnaeus' contribution to Evolution (I admit that portion was brief though).

[edit] Grooming disambiguation

In section From Grooming to Speaking the term grooming is wikified, but I don't understand which type of grooming this refers to. The actual grooming article is a disambiguation page, so it would be nice if someone corrected this, since I am not sure how to do it right, i.e. which article this should point to. --Biblbroks^Talk2me 19:32, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
