I believe that this sim was named before we had the whole "basics" thing going on for simpler versions of simulations. The name "Gene Expression - The Basics" was intended to convey the idea that this sim teaches the basics of a very complex process, and not that it is a simpler version of another sim. There is no plan to ever make a more complete, non-basic, version of this simulation.
Perhaps the sim should be renamed to avoid confusion with the basics/full terminology that PhET now uses. Maybe "Gene Expression Essentials" or "Basic Gene Expression". I'll assign to @ariel-phet to see if he thinks that this is worth doing.
Or perhaps "Gene Expression Fundamentals" or such? Let me get some designer opinions.
@amanda-phet see above...thoughts on changing the name if you put your teacher hat on?
Maybe @amyh-phet could also weigh in? I like "Gene Expression Essentials" out of the options presented above. I agree that using the new "SimName : Basics" convention does not fit in this case.
I think Gene Expression Essentials conveys that the sim introduces the topic but doesn't provide all of the information as the topic is really complex. I like "Essentials" more than "Fundamentals". I also think this would avoid the confusion with our current "SimName-Basics".
@amanda-phet should I go ahead with Gene Expression Essentials name for this sim
@aadish yes I think that title will work well.
awsm will go ahead and rename the GitHub repository to reflect the changes
Github repo has been renamed and changes have been made inside babel, chipper, phetmarks, phet-info and all-sims to reflect the same
sim has been renamed to gene expression essentials, closing
The title is currently "Gene Expression - The Basics". If this sim is following PhET conventions, the title should be "Gene Expression: Basics".
