Suggest renaming "Biological theories" section to "Biological conceptions"

[edit]

I'm not aware of any biological conceptions of race that would qualify as theories (in the scientific sense of the word). I could of course be wrong. Thoughts? — ArtifexMayhem (talk) 21:08, 4 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure, I think both the essentialist theories of the past and some of the newer ones that use subspecies etc. might be considered theories about how best to understand human biological variation. But perhaps conceptualizations is better.User:Maunus ·ʍaunus·snunɐw· 21:13, 4 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Btw. If you would like feel free to fill out sections in the layout. My aim is to try to use as high quality general sources as possible for each section. User:Maunus ·ʍaunus·snunɐw· 21:15, 4 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
