External links modified
editHello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on Thumb. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
- Added archive http://web.archive.org/web/20090920100630/http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk:80/~www_sp/people/personal/rwb/publications/1993%20Byrne_Byrne_AJP.pdf to http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/~www_sp/people/personal/rwb/publications/1993%20Byrne_Byrne_AJP.pdf
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).

Possible animals to be included
editShould chamaeleons be included, as they are zygodactyl? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.78.17.52 (talk) 09:24, 24 August 2016 (UTC)
The Thumb isn't a finger as
editEach digit has Phalanges a finger has 3 but the thumb only has 2 which mean it isn't a Finger it's a digit on the hand but not a finger[1] Dogsteeves (talk) 00:16, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
- Full quote from that Hopkins source refers to 14 bones in "the fingers", which means they consider all 5 digits are fingers, or the arithmetic doesn't work: 14 = 3 x 4 + 2 in the thumb.
- "Phalanges. The 14 bones that are found in the fingers of each hand and also in the toes of each foot. Each finger has 3 phalanges (the distal, middle, and proximal); the thumb only has 2."
- General dictionaries agree that the definition of fingers includes thumbs, at https://onelook.com/?w=finger&ls=a Numbersinstitute (talk) 02:23, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
FYI: Merger of related pages
editThere is consideration of a merger of the pages First finger, Second finger, Third finger and Fourth finger into a new page. Please discuss at Talk:First finger#Merge (2023), and not here. — HTGS (talk) 23:11, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
