Three cell biology textbooks (see [[Cell signaling#references|References]] section) use the terms [[Cell signaling]], [[Cell communication]] or [[Cell-to-cell signaling]] as titles for chapters about how cells communicate. Wikipedia also has [[Intercellular communication]]. I suggest that the "Cell signaling" and "Intercellular communication" articles be merged into [[Cell signaling]]. Data in the table below show that "Cell signaling" is used most often in Wikipedia. --[[User:JWSchmidt|JWSchmidt]] 21:02, 24 June 2006 (UTC) |

== Merge proposal Nov 2007 == |
|||
This new proposal is about merging [[Cell signaling]] into the [[Signal transduction]] article. |
|||
* '''Possibly concur''': I have not read the content, hence possibly (sorry, busy elsewhere). Both articles are pretty long, however. The differences is this one contains also hydrophobic ligand signalling which is goes directly to the nucleus. If it is a daughting tax of merging, it should be proposed as article of the month. --[[User:Squidonius|Squidonius]] ([[User talk:Squidonius|talk]]) 22:47, 22 April 2008 (UTC) |
|||
* '''oppose'''. Both articles are in good shape and long enough. Putting them together would create a mega article.-- [[User:Mdd|Mdd]] ([[User talk:Mdd|talk]]) 22:52, 22 April 2008 (UTC) |

:wow. Quick answer! MCB portal is allways dead. Some material is duplicated so this merger must be resolved by writing in both how they differ: making one referenced in the text of the other would be idea and trimming the repetitions. A warning: mega articles get split up and are not a problem, see [[molecular biology]], [[Influenza]] or [[DNA microarray]]: hence this should just be a quasi list of signalling pathways and general considerations. --[[User:Squidonius|Squidonius]] ([[User talk:Squidonius|talk]]) 23:18, 22 April 2008 (UTC) |
|||
::First. I made a new header here to make clear where we are talking about. |
|||
::It just seems to me (as an outsider) that the two articles can stay separate. [[Cell signaling]] is a specific type of [[Signal transduction]]!? -- [[User:Mdd|Mdd]] ([[User talk:Mdd|talk]]) 23:33, 22 April 2008 (UTC) |

[[User:Salwateama2008|Salwateama2008]] ([[User talk:Salwateama2008|talk]]) 07:47, 24 April 2008 (UTC) i think cell signaling must merge with the signal transduction because it is the introducction ,to the signal transduction topics thank you |
|||
*I am closing this merge proposal due to lack of activity (10 months and two votes). The two articles are reasonable articles and are not about the same subject. [[Cell signaling]] is a broad article about the process, [[signal transduction]] is an article about a component/step of the process. Where the former may discuss related issues to the process (stimulation, signal production, research, &c.), the latter would not. --[[User:OldakQuill|Oldak]] [[User_talk:OldakQuill|Quill]] 17:53, 16 September 2008 (UTC) |
