Talk:Codon Dictionary

Merge
I agree that this article should be deleted and "Codon Dictionary" should simply redirect to "Genetic Code".

Also, the article contains an error: AAA codes for Lysine, not Adenosine.

 * I believe "Adenosine" was referring to the A's themselves, not the amino acid, and have clarified the article – but on a separate issue, this article had things very, very wrong for nearly 3 years . I support the merge.  Even if better written and developed, the majority of this article's content would have to be devoted to explaining what the genetic code is, which is a prerequisite to understanding what a codon dictionary is; I don't think there's much to say about codon dictionaries themselves.  There'd be more background than unique content.  So it would be better to have everything consolidated at Genetic code.  If this article is retained, I see no reason for the capital D.  Adrian J.

 * It doesn't look like anyone else is going to comment, even after I left a note at Talk:Genetic code on June 1. There was nothing here that wasn't already covered at Genetic code, so I simply redirected there.  For the record, a simple Google search suggests "Codon table" is several fold more common than "Codon dictionary". Adrian J. Hunter(talk•contribs) 17:31, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Sounds like the right thing to have done to me. Lee&there4;V (talk  •  contribs) 00:31, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
