Talk:Wingnut (hardware)

Proposed merge to Thumbscrew (fastener)
I'm suggesting a merge because I don't think either of these topics will have enough content entire articles. "Thumbscrew" should be the combined article name because both of these types of fasteners are known as thumbscrews. ~ Booya Bazooka 21:12, 21 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Oppose One is a nut and the other is a screw, which makes them two completely different things. Instead I would merge this into nut (hardware) and the other article into screw. Wizard191 (talk) 19:02, 22 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Oppose and closing this request, now open for over a year. In the meantime, the article at Thumbscrew (fastener) has itself been merged to List of screw drives. Whatever the merits or otherwise of that merge (and it seems to me that the target article is at least now misnamed as a list), Wingnut (hardware) is itself a perfectly good stub and topic, and should grow to a good article.
