This category was nominated for deletion on 15 October 2007. The result of the discussion was no consensus.
This Category:Bioinformatics databases should be renamed to Biological database(s). These are data collections from biologists and for biologists, not from/for bioinformaticians. The primary article for this category is Biological database. Dongilbert04:04, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Gene Banks is not a Bioinformatics database subcategory
Gene Banks are biological materials repositories, e.g. for plant seeds. These are not Bioinformatics databases, though of course they use computers and store data on their seeds.
I just made a category for things like gene banks. I named the Category:Biorepositories. I put Biologicial databases as a member of it, because even though the word is "biorepository" I think the intent is "biological information repository", and the animals/plants/specimens are just the media for storing that information. In the same way, the database is storing the information. I feel like the concept of biological databases and biorepositories ought to be linked somehow, and it seemed better to put databases into the biorepository category than vice-versa.

Create Sub-Category 'Biochemistry databases'
Hi, i would like to create a sub-category 'Biochemistry databases' to clean up the Biological databases category a little by sorting the databases for biomolecules there, cheers, --Ghilt (talk) 10:02, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
