Suggested removal
The section "in popular culture" is basically a collection of badly written trivia. It has little or nothing to do with popular culture. I think it should simply be removed. What does anyone else think? Counturnameten (talk) 23:14, 29 January 2020 (UTC)
First complete genome
Am I wrong thinking that Craig Venter (or his team) was the first to show a complete genome of a living organism? It was Haemophilus influenzae. I think it should be recorded in the article. 195.191.163.62 (talk) 13:00, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
clarifying?
the article mentions venter's shotgun method being rejected by the human genome project because it was more difficult and costly, but more difficult and costly than what? other methods it was being compared to are not mentioned. should they be? SykeSinger (talk) 06:37, 30 July 2025 (UTC)
