Could UBERON 'nail' term be split into:
nail
&
nail plate

It relates to a GO request for nail plate morphogenesis:
SF: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3307500&group_id=36855&atid=440764

Although in common usage the word nail often refers to the the nail plate only [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nail_(anatomy)], the nail plate is actually part of the nail.

UBERON has:

id: UBERON:0001705
name: nail
def: "a horn-like keratin structure covering the dorsal aspect of the terminal phalanges of fingers and toes[WP]." [Wikipedia:Nail_(anatomy)]
comment: TODO: check claw vs nail. A primate's nail consists of the unguis alone; the subunguis has disappeared.

Mouse anatomy has:
nail ; MA:0002703
--<cuticle
--<nail bed
--<nail plate ; MA:0002708
etc

Would you consider splitting UBERON:0001705 into terms for both 'nail' and nail plate'? Some of the children would need to be tweaked slightly.

Thanks,
Becky
