Disambiguation page may be necessary
The following discussion was moved from the Directed evolution page.

Some bioethicist use the term directed evolution or self-directed evolution like a synonym to human genetic engineering. Geneticist use the term to describe a laboratory procedure. I recommend keeping the two different uses of the term on the same article for now, but if the article grows it may need a disambiguation page. Misscosmo (talk) 03:54, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the terminology heads-up. Would it be possible for you to expand the section that you added to the article? A summary, or set of examples would be useful, otherwise it ends up looking like a group of bombastic quotes. T. Shafee (Evo&#38;Evo) (talk) 04:22, 2 December 2014 (UTC)

Directed evolution as a laboratory term are much more numerous
 * A Google search limited to .edu domains brings 16,400 hits, and they all refer to the laboratory procedure, from what I see. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Misscosmo (talk • contribs) 16:47, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
