Talk:Orthologue

Orthologue vs. Ortholog
The majority of references I've found to "orthologues" or "orthologous genes" uses "ortholog" as the singular, not "orthologue." I suggest we eliminate the redirection, moving this page to "ortholog" and correcting all linked pages (Evolution, etc.). Any comments? I'll wait a month or two for feedback. --kramtark 13:58, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
 * It might be a case of AmE vs BrE, but for what it's worth, the same is true for me. However, I don't think it's accurate to say that orthologue is the singular. Although I thought it was going to be a case similar to analog(ue), I'm moving the page based on this Google search indicating the ue might be something BrE speakers do so they don't sound "too American"; a Googlefight showed 5 million for ortholog and 800k for orthologue. I know Americans are always disproportionately represented, but that's something of a landslide. :) Moulder 02:38, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
