Merger proposal

I propose that Teased wool be merged into Scutching. I think that the content in the Teasing article can easily be explained in the context of Scutching, and the Scutching article is of a reasonable size that the merging of Teasing will not cause any problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned.

Merge - Both are steps required before carding Wataimi (talk) 03:44, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Don't merge - Only flax and cotton processing is discussed here, not wool. Wataimi (talk) 03:44, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge - One article could cover these better, and would be easier on the reader. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:00, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Don't merge these are two separate subjects. It doesn't make sense to have teasing be a small subsection of scutching. AlexEng^(TALK) 19:11, 14 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Don't merge, one does not tease cotton, nor scutch wool. Mannanan51 (talk) 03:04, 28 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
