Split

I have split this article between itself and List of body modifications, as the list was overwhelming the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Notcharizard (talk • contribs) 01:35, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The article Genital modification and mutilation was copy-pasted here.

I just came to this page to read about body modification in general, and because of this copy-paste job, there are three paragraphs about body modification in general, followed by thirty-nine paragraphs about various forms of genital modification, with nothing about non-genital modification. The result of this is that this article reads extremely strangely now, with an obsessive focus on genitalia modification to the exclusion of everything else. This seems, at best, an unencyclopedic choice. Also, I don't see why we need the exact same content appearing on two separate articles. --FPTI (talk) 01:10, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
