Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Human cells
Human cells was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was redirect to List of distinct cell types in the adult human body.
This article doesn't need to exist for the same reason cat cell or female cell don't exist. It doesn't report anything new or exclusive to humans. If there are cells that only existed in humans (afaik, there isn't), then they could be listed here and I'd keep. I've never heard the distinction "human cell" ever being made/used. --jag123 20:10, 22 Dec 2004 (UTC)

- Agree with the above redirect, unless air birds and tree birds are going to be reinstated. iMeowbot~Mw 00:31, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Redirect as Michael said. --fvw* 01:08, 2004 Dec 23 (UTC)
- Do the redirect, and I've been waiting to write about Flybirdia. -- Cyrius|✎ 08:12, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- I don't know. I figure there must be something distinct about a human cell, otherwise they'd be cat cells or fish cells or space alien cells, wouldn't they? Everyking 12:57, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- I'm not aware of anything special about or exclusive to human cells but I could be wrong. Like I said above, if someone knows more about this, I'll keep it. I doubt there is any fundamental difference between bone cells, for instance, of human, cat or fish. I can't say as much for space alien cells though, I've never seen them. --jag123 13:20, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- There's no fundamental difference at the undifferentiated "cell" level between a "human cell" and a "generic multicelluar animal cell". -- Cyrius|✎ 18:11, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)
