Evolution
As someone will undoubtedly come along to object to your edit, let me try to explain first. (As I've not edited that article I can just make the observation) Articles that are controversial attract a lot of attention. People feel very strongly about particulars. Not surprisingly, other people will feel the exact opposite. And many people somewhere in between. Thus we have talk pages where discussions can take place. And, perhaps more importantly, a record of old discussions exists (though sometimes you have to look for the 'archives' for older discussions).

And I'm sure it will not surprise you to realize that thhe point you objected to has been argued about, probably several times, and also quite recently. Please review the current talk page, and if possible the archives. Then you will be ready to argue your point in a discussion.

I will not revert your change on the basis that you did not discuss it first - I'm sure someone else will. Discussion is best - the talk pages are sometimes the more interesting parts of an article. Shenme 18:25, 14 April 2007 (UTC)


 * To that let me add the reasons your change was removed. Personal speculation does not belong in articles. It is not enough for you to claim controversy. You must supply references, preferably in the form of citations to peer-reviewed science journals, demonstrating that evolution as a whole is controversial. Please let me know if you have any questions. — Knowledge Seeker দ 19:48, 14 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Can I further add, that part of one of your additions makes no sense at all. I am referring to you adding, "With the development of new technology such as the microscope, Darwin's Origin of Species containing his theory of Macro-evolution has received doubt from the scientific community. Science has seen that biological cells like the eukaryotic cell are far more complex than Darwin originally imagined."


 * The Microscope was invented as early as the 17th century (or perhaps easrlier) while Darwin was a 19th scientist. This is something that anyone with a basic understanding of the history of science must know. Errors like this do not add credibility to statements but make it appear like the addition of regurgitated and scientifically unsupported PoV. Candy 10:40, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
