Proposed merge with Wing of ilium

It is needlessly fragmented to have separate articles, when these could easily be displayed on a single article. This would allow for content to be better integrated, provide more context, and enhance the readability of the article.

I have also proposed the above merge. LT910001 (talk) 23:45, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

speaking of readability...

This article is not readable by modern-day nonanatomists. At all. It also is structured along the lines of the material from which it was copied (most likely written in the early 1900s). Nobody today is even capable of writing in this style. Nobody. And few alive today are capable of comprehending it, either. The absence of illustrations which reference the article's terminology makes this problem worse.

The entire structure of this article is aimed at a nonexistent audience. What is the significance of the ilium in the context of today's general reader? This article has no clue.

Please, some knowledgeable writer, try to tackle this subject with a new article. The utility of a rewrite is quite low. Start from scratch.--75.164.155.194 (talk) 00:45, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
