I'm not satisfied with the definition as it stands:
Co-operation or co-operative behaviours are terms used to describe behaviours by biological organisms which a beneficial to other members of the same species.
How about something like:
Co-operation or co-operative behaviours are terms used to describe behaviours of biological entities (from genes to societies) which are mutually beneficial to the evolutionary success of each entity involved.
I'm not sure if this article intends to deal with all levels, including individual genes. I presume it means only to deal with cooperation that is advantageous in terms of survival, but again I can't be certain. I'll leave it for other authors to decide. Richard001 07:53, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
I think the other page, Evolution of cooperation, should be used as the base for the merger - since it has more information pre-organized. I suggested a merge to THIS page, however, since this page name seems more concise and appropriate.- Tesseract2 ( talk) 19:16, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
The section on the Prisoner's Dilemma Game, the section that follows it, and the footnote on the mechanism on which kin selection works are all borrowed, with minor changes, from the article on Altruism (biology), with the author's knowledge and permission. Oggmus ( talk) 05:23, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi,
I just read this article on co-operation and I find the section "Evolutionary mechanisms suggesting that reciprocity is the result, not the cause, of the evolution of cooperation" rather weird. The wording is rather complicated, it does not go straight to the point. Seems to me that the point suggested here is a mixture of the "green beard" gene hypothesis and of honest signaling hypothesis, but I don't know if, phrased like that, it should be on wikipedia. I think that the title of the section is also way too long and unclear.
What are your opinions on that?
Thank you for your help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pecoffet ( talk • contribs) 13:15, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
