: I object to a blank and redirect for this topic. How well noncoding DNA elements are conserved, across types and across species, and the noncoding elements that are found to be CNEs, is a notable topic. [[Non-coding DNA]] doesn't even mention conservation, except to point to this article for more information on the topic. I think this is fine as a standalone topic as evidenced by refs below. Merging in all the content related to conservation and evolution of noncoding elements is also a possibility; although it looks like the [[Non-coding DNA]] editors have at some point already decided this content is better as separate article. But blanking simply gets rid of reliably sourced material that is not in the target article. Here are some recent reliable sources that talk about CNEs that show CNEs are a topic unto themselves: [https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5728398/], [https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38502060/], [https://bmcgenomics.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12864-025-11221-9]. And here is a paper about dbCNS, a database of CNEs [https://academic.oup.com/mbe/article/38/4/1665/5983335]. --<code>{{u|[[User:Mark viking|Mark viking]]}} {[[User talk:Mark viking|Talk]]}</code> 20:44, 24 July 2025 (UTC)
::Read the introduction. It defines conserved non-coding sequences as regulatory sequences and transcription factor binding sites. There's no mention of conserved non-coding elements (CNEs) but there is a section on "Untraconserved regions." I agree that there should be an article on CNEs but not this one.
::Other than ultraconserved regions, what other material in this article isn't covered just as well in another article? Regulatory sequences? Transposable elements? Pseudogenes? Introns? UTRs? [[User:Genome42|Genome42]] ([[User talk:Genome42|talk]]) 22:27, 24 July 2025 (UTC)
