[edit]

The CorenBot has some validity- the characteristics part at the very beginning is part of PaleoWiki. I have cited the website at the bottom and was about to make a notation there. I cannot find how to place that information without using it word for word- I would like some assistance with this. I swear everything else has validity. Thank you for your time.

Also- the source is already a wiki- which I believe means Wikipedia owns it and I am licensed to use this info. Is this correct? Superraptor 15:31, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • No, Wikimedia Foundation only runs specific Wikis. Ultimately what matters is the license each Wiki uses, It doesn't seem like Paleowiki really knows what license they're using yet... [1]. I don't think copy and pasting from them is acceptable right now. but you could get permission from whoever wrote the article there to release the content under the GFDL. --W.marsh 17:52, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unless I am mistaken dinosauriformes are NOT reptiles. I don't think any paleontologist believes that to be the case, as dinosaurs themselves aren't reptiles. You can't not be an ancestral clade. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.145.85.49 (talk) 23:29, 7 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Controversial cladogram?

[edit]

The cladogram give here contradicts the ones (or examples like cladograms) in other articles here, such as Dinosaur, Evolution of dinosaurs, Dinosaur classification and Theropoda. I'm in no way knowledgeable to change it, but does it need to me mentioned the cladogram given is controversial and/or not agreed by all palaeontologists, and the debate is ongoing? 194.28.127.52 (talk) 22:34, 26 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
