Inappropriate use of "re-sequencing" in title of article

[edit]

The technical term "re-sequencing" is so specialized that, not only is it defined nowhere in Wikipedia, there are only 3 occurrences of the term in the article on DNA Sequencing -- only one of which uses the hyphenated form. Indeed, it makes little sense to include the qualifier at all since "genomic data" necessarily implies base pair positions. Jim Bowery (talk) 15:31, 20 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, and I’ve taken the liberty of moving the page since nobody has objected in the ~1.5 years since your comment.--klmr (talk) 14:27, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Title - sentence casing?

[edit]

Shouldn't the title have sentence casing?

undislosed COI by an author

[edit]

The editor that added the genozip section has previously disclosed a COI on other articles featuring this tool, but failed to do that here. Also the compression percentage of up to 99% for bam and fastq files is not found in the provided reference, so it strongly seems like self promotion, especially since the tool is commercial. 130.226.236.6 (talk) 12:31, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
