	Evolutionary biology portal This article is part of WikiProject Evolutionary biology, an attempt at building a useful set of articles on evolutionary biology and its associated subfields such as population genetics, quantitative genetics, molecular evolution, phylogenetics, and evolutionary developmental biology. It is distinct from the WikiProject Tree of Life in that it attempts to cover patterns, process and theory rather than systematics and taxonomy.

Primary sources[edit]

So, I think this is potentially a useful page (but I guess I'm biased), but I'm worried that there's basically no way to write it without leaning very heavily on primary literature. I think it would be useful to put some of the info from the sources I've listed already in more easy-to-digest, wikipedia format... but again, it's hard to do without relying exclusively on primary literature...

Hello and thank you for this article. Looks to me that most of the sources here are definitely reliable sources and not primary sources (using Wikipedia's non-standard definition of it where newspapers are considered secondary sources). Research papers that give an overview of current understanding are usually considered secondary sources here. – Thjarkur (talk) 10:12, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! Sorry, I think that was my misunderstanding of the way "primary" is used on Wikipedia vs. in the sciences. Thanks for taking a look and clarifying! Jesseseeem (talk) 14:02, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Further reading[edit]

The link goes to a Google Drive document which is typically not something Wikipedia relies on. User:Jesseseeem, is it possible to upload your paper to your own website or somewhere that is a more permanent link (not-paywalled of course)? Andrew Z. Colvin • Talk 06:33, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yup! I can link to this version for now (personal website, but no paywall or anything...): https://www.jessecm.org/s/czekanskimoirRundell2019_ecoNonAdRad.pdf Jesseseeem (talk) 19:42, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
