Talk:Squoval

This article was nominated for deletion on 11 December 2012 (UTC). The result of the discussion was no consensus.

Squoval should probably be added to a list of geometric shapes. However, it should not be exclusive to manicures or fingernails since it also refers to other styles in cosmetology such as hair styling. Perhaps it would fit best in human grooming or body care.

I believe it should be referenced but remain a separate entry.

Who is this "Peters" the text refers to?

The article attributes some information to "Peters", without further establishing who that is. There is no other mention of that name in the article body, nor does it refer to one of the references.

The article reads:

"Essentially a conservative square with the length of a square nail but the softer edges of an oval" the term was coined in 1984 by Paula Gilmore, a prominent educator, according to Peters^[1].

But the indicated reference (#1) points to:

1. Crowley, Tim (2007). "Getting Nails Into Shape", Nails, p.81. November issue accessed 02/15/08.

This doesn't help explain the identity of the mysterious "Peters".
