-== merger with protective suit ==
+{{WikiProject Fashion |importance=Low}}
-Protective clothing makes little mention of suits and clothing for the purpose of biological, chemical or nuclear clear up/handling which it logically should since suits are clothing. Since gloves, hearing protection etc are simply headings for links to other wikipedia articles which go into more detail, I think it would be more consistent to have a heading of "Protecive suits" or something with links to "NBC suit" and "Hazmat suit", and most of the information that is/was in protective suit is already present in "protective clothing".
+{{WikiProject Occupational Safety and Health |importance=High}}
+{{WikiProject Underwater diving|importance=Low}}
-however if there were a merger the information in "protective suit" about protection of nuclear and biohazard should be preserved, particularly the distinction between [[particle radiation]] and straight [[radiation]] limiting the use and design of some suits, thsi should be higher up somewhere in "suits" or maybe here in protective clothing, and not confined to [[NBC suit]] (where it is currently the only place it exists) which is why I made "protective suit" in the first place.
+{{WikiProject Technology }}
+{{WikiProject Women }}
-also as the author of [[Tag 26]] where the design of the suit is of significant importance it would be good to have a proper distinction between Hazmat, biohazard and NBC suits, which wikipedia currently does not make. [[User:Fegor|Fegor]] 00:55, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

-== Work Gloves ==
-My company recently researched and published information on work gloves: the different types of materials, different cuff types, and sizing info. I think it would be a useful external link for the article. Work gloves are an important item of personal protective gear.

-*I combined the wikilinks "Particulate respirator (N95)" and "AirPowered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR)" since they link to the same article and section. [[User:Deewhite|dwboston]] 17:30, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
-== Industrial Shoes ==
-Why is there a picture of clogs in this article?  Seems completely unrelated to me. [[Special:Contributions/70.75.214.214|70.75.214.214]] ([[User talk:70.75.214.214|talk]]) 01:03, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
-Steel-tipped shoes are compulsory in many industrial environments. There should be a section on the various kinds. [[User:Augusta2|Everybody got to be somewhere!]] ([[User talk:Augusta2|talk]]) 23:37, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
-== Merging Blunt Trauma PPE into this article ==
-The article [[Blunt Trauma PPE]] appears redundant to this one.  If no one objects, I will be performing a merge to redirect that article to this one.  --[[User:Jayron32|Jayron32]].[[User talk:Jayron32|<small>talk</small>]].[[Special:Contributions/Jayron32|<small>contribs</small>]] 04:10, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
-Some consistent content were added since then. All the aspects of a Blunt Trauma PPE (Protection, Mobility and Cooling) are very important to the users. I think this Blunt Trauma PPE article is too specific to be merged into the Personal Protective Equipment page. [[User:Shareitnow|Shareitnow]] ([[User talk:Shareitnow|talk]]) 14:53, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

-== Lists ==
-This article needs overhaul, since the sections seem to be all over the place. Perhaps some lists, namely with the part of PPE by hazard is needed. Could work on it if nobody else feels like it.

-== Rewrote ==
-Because of the need for the article to be rewritten, I rewrote it. All of the old content will be in the previous edition of my edits on 9/20/12. I will continually work on this article.
-[[User:JZNIOSH|JZNIOSH]] ([[User talk:JZNIOSH|talk]]) 18:06, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
-: It's a start, for sure.  We probably need different articles on sports equipment, historical and current military armor, and occupational PPE. History would be good, especially with statistics.  --[[User:Wtshymanski|Wtshymanski]] ([[User talk:Wtshymanski|talk]]) 18:44, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
-Yeah, I think the currently unwritten sports equipment article can be separated by sport, and have links to all the articles about sporting equipment.

-== Foot protection ==
-Under the "Types" section, foot protection should also have an explanation versus only mentioning it in the intro paragraph. I suggest taking  out the cop that regards to the foot protection and move in underneath the intro with "Foot protection" in bold.
