The text is about "coined the term" (probably "neo-Darwinism") hence this article should be split into a bio and the coined term.

No, disagree. The article is about much more than the coining of a term. But if the article gets longer, a separation into 'Life' and 'Work' would follow naturally. Macdonald-ross (talk) 17:58, 10 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Romanes and Religion edit

It is actually doubtful whether Romanes eventually embraced Christianity again. His posthumous papers are not entirely clear on the matter. Historiographical sources other than McGrew's may be referred to. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Movinwes (talkcontribs) 14:45, 15 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

The article as presently worded contradicts itself on the question whether Romanes returned to Christianity at the end of his life. 68.3.215.199 (talk) 16:56, 10 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

His positions edit

The text is inconsistent in telling us what professional positions he held, when. In the Accomplishments section it mentioned that he was a Professor at the University of Edinburgh. Professor of what? Then it mentions that he established a lecture series later, when he was a Professor at Cambridge University. It never actually mentions his becoming that. And again, Professor of what? Music? I think that he deserves better than this. Felsenst (talk) 21:50, 21 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
