Lint

this article is missing coverage of animals, some of which have navel lint as well. And on the composition of the lint, which has non-clothing related components. 65.95.13.213 (talk) 04:48, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

Proposed merge

I propose merging navel lint into this article, as it is only a particular kind of the material. bd2412 T 19:32, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

I'm inclined to agree. We do not have separate articles on pocket lint, toe lint, shoe lint, turn-up lint, etc.. Should the section expand we can split again. Rich Farmbrough, 20:34, 17 September 2012 (UTC).
If there are no other comments, I think this is good to go. bd2412 T 20:42, 20 September 2012 (UTC)

The merge is a bad idea. There is enough material in the other wikis (de, it), to expand into its own article. Navel lint is discussed in many sources as a distinct topic from lint in general.--Sum (talk) 23:48, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

Both the German and Italian navel lint articles are basically one long paragraph. The material is already reflected in this article, except for the note, of dubious encyclopedic value, about the "world record holder" for navel lint. In short, there is nothing in those articles with which this section could be expanded. bd2412 T 23:57, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

Lint free

Could this article explain why there are lint-free versions of q-tips and cloths — Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.7.93.63 (talk) 19:29, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
