I agree that such a disclaimer would be a bad thing.  Surely, though, it is
enough to wikilink [[evolution]], [[evolved]] etc. just once in any article
that uses these concepts.  After all, theres is also criticism of 'species'
as a concept on WP; it hardly means that every single article assuming the
species concept needs to cite it directly.
