[edit] Urogenital papilla
Transwikied dictionary definition TexasAndroid (talk) 14:18, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
- Keep as a valid stub capable of being expanded way beyond a dictionary definition. For starters there are about 1000 sources here and here which someone who understands the subject could use to expand the article. Phil Bridger (talk) 14:51, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
- Comment If it's kept, it needs serious revision--Phil Bridger's own links shows a) it's not limited to pigs; mention in fish is very common, probably even outnumbering mention in all mammals combined; b) when mentioned in mammals, it's generally in the context of determining the sex of fetal animals (including pigs, rabbits, and rats); it's not immediately clear that it's present in adult mammals.

- Comment. Yes, it needs revision, but that can't happen if it's deleted. AfD is not cleanup. If I had concentrated a bit more in my school biology classes then I would be able to have a go at fixing it, but I'd rather leave that to someone who knows a little more about the subject.
