Talk:race

To say here, too... This article intends to describe the concept of race, not the "fact" that "races" exist. Article is full of US and right-wingers shit and it should be rearranged. However, there are a lot of useful materials. I'll add POV template for the beginning... I would appreciate any kind of help in editing the article. --Millosh 06:57, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

I agree. I've worked a bit on the Wikipedia article and was frustrated by the right wing racist bias. I am a biologists and so I think I understand the biology well. I'll have a go at editing this article in the near future. Cheers. Alun

Removed references

Here is the list of removed references from original Wikipedia article. Maybe it may be useful. For sure, it should be analyzed in the future:

1. Bamshad, Michael and Steve E. Olson. "Does Race Exist?"Scientific American Magazine (10 November 2003). Removed as article (at least in the context of the Wikipedia article) supports existence of "races".

I have read the document... it does not support the existence of "races". In fact it says that 90% of the genetic variability occours within any population, only the remaining 10% can eventually aid in determining the population a person is from. It was referenced by Wikipedia in a misleading way, in my opinion. ~Rev 22 19:35, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Well it's still relevant. In fact no genetic research supports the existence of "races". We should not include only referecnes that support the existence of so called "race", we should include all scientific points of view. Michael Bamshad is a very well known geneticist and he does know what he is talking about. Alun
