Formic and Acetic acid?[edit]
Hi, is anyone watching here? I think we should remove formic and acetic acid from the list at the top of the article. See this post I made at the reference desk [1], as well as this definition from IUPAC [2]. The definition of fatty acid is obviously a bit loose, but I don't see how formic acid or acetic acid (or even propionic acid) can be said to fit the definition given at fatty acid. If I don't get any feedback within a few days I will make the deletion. SemanticMantis (talk) 21:57, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
