What are some documented cases of the type of evolution necessary for Darwinian - even on the microevolution level - in other words where information is added to the DNA sequence through mutations? As opposed to mutations which lose information, which is what evos like to point to as observed cases of evolution?

Why do you ask? Is that the only thing holding you back from accepting the theory of evolution? Would evidence of that change your mind?

Why do you ask?

Scientific theories are supposed to be based on empirical observation. If evolution is true such mutations should be happening all over the place. So if there's a lack of such, it should be seen as significant.

Is that the only thing holding you back from accepting the theory of evolution? Would evidence of that change your mind?

I would say that would be one major hurdle. There's still others, such as the mathematical likelihood of each and every such mutation building on the last one and being passed on to successive generations without the particular variation dying etc. So no, not by itself. I'm only asking about micro-evolution, not macro.
