This article was created from material moved from the article Nylon-eating bacteria as result of an extended discussion on that article's talk page. Rusty Cashman (talk) 02:58, 11 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Banners on intro

edit

An editor added some banners claiming the intro provided insufficient context, and was unencyclopedic. I believe I have addressed those concerns. I would appreciate it if the editor that added the banners either agreed to their removal or provided specific comments any remaining problems. Thanks.

When I first saw the article, it wasn't readily understandable to the casual reader. It's been cleaned up quite a bit and explains its subject much better now, so sure, I agree that the tags are no longer necessary. It's not featured by a long shot, but it's not bad at all.

Thanks. I made the mistake of thinking I could move the material over from nylon-eating bacteria in one edit and come back later to work on the intro. However, people seem quicker off the mark around here than they used to be. :) Rusty Cashman (talk) 17:08, 11 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Intelligent Design

Added by 69.19.14.17 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) beneath the article's last sentence:

^This is inconsitent with Wikipedia article Nylon-eating bacteria which states "The P. aeruginosa strain" which the scientist's studied "did not seem to use the same enzymes that had been utilized by the original Flavobacterium strain."

Characterization of talk.origins POTM

edit

Hi Cyberpower. On a second reading I prefer your version to mine. The phrase "highly critical" at the beginning of the paragraph is sufficient to capture the tone of the t.o. cite. GaramondLethe 15:28, 29 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

poor choice of words

"critics of creationism and intelligent design" you mean..scientists, right ?181.14.199.130 (talk) 17:03, 27 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

In addition to scientists, teachers, scholars, students, their parents, and even some religious figures also criticize creationism and intelligent design. So, no, it's actually an apt choice of words.--Mr Fink (talk) 17:11, 27 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
I also found the sentence loaded so have reworded it. —PaleoNeonate11:30, 26 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
There were various other WP:GEVAL and WP:YESPOV issues that I tried to address. —PaleoNeonate12:11, 8 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
