Missing information
[edit]Non-biological instances of convergent evolution, such as trenacisation (non-railway public transport systems evolving to bad copies of trains), are not mentioned in the article. Erkin Alp Güney 18:50, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for the suggestion. However, this article is about a type of evolution which is a process in biology. The railway and similar processes may perhaps be analogous to biological evolution; if there is an article on those processes, we could link them in the "See also" section, or perhaps create an "Analogous processes" section if there are reliable sources that we could cite to describe the analogies briefly. Basically, however, non-biological systems are off-topic for biology articles. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 10:05, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
