Why was A R Wallace sidelined by Charles Darwin at least in modern eyes?
I'm not certain that Wallace was sidelined; he was more of a field biologist that Darwin - apart from Darwin's voyage on the Beagle.

Darwin's publication of Origin of the Species sealed his fame; it became a best seller and Darwin became strongly associated with the theory. Wallace agreed that Darwin deserved the credit as Darwin had done most of the research behind the theory. Wallace and Darwin corrosponded throughout their lives and Darwin considered Wallace one of the great thinkers on evolution.

Why is Darwin more famous than Wallace in the explanation of evolution?
The reason the focus, or major credit goes to Darwin is, though they both realized the principles of evolution, Wallace's presentation was little more than the realization. Darwin had had the realization and spent almost twenty years documenting and exploring the relations and complexities of said theory. Wallace himself had no difficulty with Darwin receiving the majority of the credit. Wallace had sent Darwin his paper on the topic, which kind of shocked Darwin that some one else might scoop his idea, he decided to present his idea to the Royal Society, and when he did so, he presented at the same time Wallace's paper, a very gracious thing to do on Darwins part. Wallace was at the time totally unaware of what was happening and only learned after the fact that he was presented to the Royal Society as co-discoverer of, The Theory Of Evolution By Natural Selection.
