Nobody refers to these as "eosinophil granulocytes"! Can we re-re-direct the page back to its original title - "Eosinophil"?—Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.11.148.135 (talkcontribs) 18:48, 1 September 2005

I agree with the above statement. Eosinophil alone is good enough for clinical hematologists. Also, the picture of the eosinophil on the main page is AWFUL. Eosinophils will stain orange-ish red. They are very distinctive. The one on the main page could be confused with a neutrophil. Anyone have a better photo? Rdbrd82 20:17, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

Glad someone picked up on the "edibility" section...! Hope the "WTF" wasn't taken too badly - the important thing is that the problem was recognised and corrected. Thank-you to whoever it was. :)—Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.236.51.251 (talkcontribs) 14:04, 7 October 2006

[edit] Eosinophil figure describing structure

Mammalian cells have cell membranes or plasma membranes. Plant cells and bacteria have cell walls. 66.27.79.201 20:28, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Captions

The captions in this article seem repetitive and uninformative. Seems pointless to me.Nashaii 18:39, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Phagocytic role

According to "Foundation in Microbiology - Basic Principles", Fourth Edition by Talaro, on page 437, it says that eosinophils play a phagocytic role, although minor role. I think this should be stated in the Wikipedia article. Similarily in the "Immune System" article, under phagocyte grouping, the eosinophil is not listed.
