Talk:Abdomen

Help this page

This page was originally created by user:Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason to provide information about abdomens in general. Many animals besides humans have one. Please help clean up or add to this article. TheLimbicOne 18:57, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

TheLimbicOne and I have been discussing my recent editorial boldness and the need for Abdomen to broadly cover the topic. You can follow it in my talk page and Limbic's talk, but if you're disinclined, here's my last post:

• I take your point about the intent of the Abdomen page and must say I didn't appreciate its purpose at the time. My toes are quite intact, thankyou, as is my spirit. Abdomen really is in dire need of some work. My first thought was it needed a disambiguation page, but now I'm thinking maybe some article that is informative, but provides the disambiguation links as well, may be more useful. I'll stick this to the abdomen discussion page in case others are more inspired to have a go. --Mattopaedia 01:33, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

This article need complete rewriting because: the style is poor, facts are incomplete or wrong, structure is chaotic. Nothing about the article should be in Wikipedia. For a doctor this is a disaster. jmak 05:24, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

Rewriting the article

I have done a rewrite of the first two sections of this article and added appropriate references. I have also removed all the material I believe to be incorrect. Please review this edit and add to it. I don't have a particularly good knowledge of invertebrates so I have left this section, any help would be most welcome.

I`ve done quite lot of corrections and some factual changes in first two paragraphs. ^^^^ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jmak (talk • contribs) 09:27, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Almost rewrited introduction and vertabrates (unvertebrates untouched). Keeeping the structure (my last 3-4 corrections) jmak 07:13, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

Abdomen: vertebrates, Arthropoda, etc.

In my opinion Abdomen (vertebrates) and Abdomen (Arthropoda) should be two separate articles.

The illustration for abdomen (Arthropoda) should be a more generic one such as http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imagen:Insect_anatomy_diagram.svg. The one used now is that of a very especialized group, ants, that doesn't represent the abdomen structure very well. --Polinizador (talk) 15:04, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Human abdomen

Human Abdomen and Abdomen need not be separate. The article looks in good shape after I merged it. Give your inputs. Piano no who (talk) 08:36, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

What about spiders?

Unlike other Arthropods, insects possess no legs on the abdomen in adult form,

Spiders don't have legs on the abdomen either.80.141.213.4 (talk) 20:30, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

Seriously out of all the pictures with people with six packs, you choose that one of that teen. If your going to write about a six pack get a decent picture at least. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.117.18.253 (talk) 20:21, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
