Question edit
While a veterinarian can clean a sheath, it is a medical procedure and can be done by any person who learns the proper method.[6]
Shouldn't this say "NOT a medical procedure"?--77.248.118.70 (talk) 19:04, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

Tossed the merge tag, as there is no "Horse penis" article (nor need there be, any more than horse uterus). I think it's OK to leave this as a spinoff, because it is relevant to both stallion and gelding articles and also is pretty long to be repeated in both of them. We have articles for other hygiene stuff on wiki, horse grooming for example. I think it's fine as is. I suppose if you are desperate to merge this, it could go into horse grooming, but I really don't see the need to merge. Happy to discuss , though. Montanabw(talk) 22:44, 10 June 2013 (UTC)
- Actually, there is an article with this title, but it's a sub-section of another article, instead of a standalone article. Would it be reasonable to merge this article back into that section (as I previously suggested with the tags that I added)? I'm afraid that some deletionist Wikipedians might be inclined to delete this article if someone doesn't merge it with another (more notable) article, so I think this article should be merged, to protect against the possibility of deletion.

- Redirects aren't really articles, though sometimes they used to be; the redirect section is about one paragraph long. I don't think we have any risk of deletion targeting here, and if we do, I usually succeed in stopping such efforts. Worst case scenario, it just merges back into gelding and/or stallion. I guess my position is we jump off that cliff when we get to it. In the meantime, if some guy who played one season of professional cricket in Sri Lanka is notable enough to survive deletion, this article should be fine. Montanabw(talk) 18:32, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
- @User:Montanabw: Still, I think it would be better to merge this article into another existing article than to leave it as a standalone article, since the article is still a stub, and seems disjointed from the rest of Wikipedia in its current state. Jarble (talk) 15:50, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

- Well, the only logical place would be horse grooming, or maybe horse care, I think. But I don't think the "it's a stub" argument works for me. That said, it's not worth me putting any "drahmahz" into it, either :-) Montanabw(talk) 16:04, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
- @User:Montanabw Perhaps the article could be merged into Horse grooming#Bathing, then? Or should the article be left in its present state? I'm still a bit concerned about the possbility of deletion (despite the relatively low risk), and I want to make sure that this article's content won't be deleted.

- LOL. WP Equine has over 1300 stubs. I'm not in the least worried about a RfD. If it is, we could merge then. Otherwise, my attitude is we cross that bridge when we get to it. Montanabw(talk) 16:34, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
