*Does it need to be more than it is? It seems that anything you could say about zygotes is covered by the articles linked in it. Stubinitis? - [[User:Samsara|{{{2|Samsara}}}]] ([[User talk:Samsara|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Samsara|contribs]]) 21:51, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

*Among the topics not covered: The differences between plant and animal zygotes, The history of the scientific discovery of zygotes and their place in the reproductive cycle, Images/photos of zygotes. 20:08, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

**I might support the photos. The rest I still think would be better covered in related articles. Zygotes are not that interesting in their own right. They become interesting only when discussed in terms of the reproductive cycle. Basically, like [[gamete]]s (look at the article, mostly dictdef), the term ''zygote'' is a piece of jargon that enables us to talk fluently about interesting things. I'm not sure, however, that the object referred to is interesting in isolation. (Perhaps a little like schools, furniture and boxes...) - [[User:Samsara|{{{2|Samsara}}}]] ([[User talk:Samsara|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Samsara|contribs]]) 16:31, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
