Format

I am a little confused as to what you mean regarding the format. Do you want the Homo ... sections to each be a separate subpage of this page? The article looks in pretty good shape right now. Please reply here or on your talk page. David E. Volk 10:44, 28 March 2008 (CDT)

Content focus

Diana: Consider discussing with your professor whether you wish to develop the article as the evolution of 'hominid' intelligence or 'hominin' intelligence, since 'hominid' includes the Great Apes whereas 'hominin' refers to the lineage from which Homo sapiens emerged.

As I understand the most recent definition:

Hominid - the group consisting of all modern and extinct Great Apes (that is, modern humans, chimpanzees, gorillas and orangutans plus all their immediate ancestors).
Hominin - the group consisting of modern humans, extinct human species and all our immediate ancestors (including members of the genera Homo, Australopithecus, Paranthropus and Ardipithecus).
