Merge into Cuticle article[edit]

According to the disambiguation page for Cuticle, [here it is]

Cuticle, or cuticula (latin for "covering"), may refer to:

  • Plant cuticle, or cuticula, a waxy polymeric film covering all aerial plant surfaces
  • Cuticle (nail), in human anatomy, the fold of skin at the proximal end of the nail
  • Cuticula (invertebrate), the outside of the epidermis of many invertebrates
  • Enamel cuticle, a covering of the crown of a newly erupted tooth, quickly destroyed by chewing
  • Cuticle (hair), or cuticula pili, a layer of overlapping cells that surround the hair cortex and lock the hair shaft in its follicle

This article on Plant cuticle looks comprehensive and succint. Do you think it makes sense to merge it into the article Cuticle as a subtopic? SueHay 17:48, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm withdrawing the merge suggestion. --SueHay 02:28, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
