Hey Gazzster!
Thanks for the note. It looks like you've made some excellent contributions to quite a few dinosaur articles. As you noted on my talk page, I'm definitely a dinophile. I'm certainly more than willing to collaborate with you on dinosaur articles :). You may also want to consider joining (or at least visiting) Wikipedia:WikiProject Dinosaurs, because there is a lot of excellent material over there, and plenty of friendly users who would love to talk dino-talk with you. Take care and happy editing! :) --Firsfron of Ronchester 07:38, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Just to let you know that your contribution to Pacifism is appreciated.
(from a non-Catholic.) BTW, i know that many Catholics dislike the qualification Roman Catholic, but in the Apostles' Creed used by many Protestant denominations the literal English text is:
- ...
- I believe in the Holy Spirit,
- the holy catholic church,
- the communion of saints,
- ...
where here "catholic" (with a small "c") means "universal" and not the church that is governed by the Vatican. just thought i'd mention it. r b-j 03:54, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Taking one for the team
Thanks for hitting Pelorosaurus and Ornithopsis! I'd worked on most of the other genera associated with that mess, but I wasn't feeling much like doing anything on those two. J. Spencer 02:01, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- No problem! I'm not territorial (well, I do hang around the hypsilophodonts, but I'm not nasty about it), and I don't think any other dinosaur editor is, either, so feel comfortable contributing to any of the articles. If you want a challenge, I'd try the absurdly over-used Megalosaurus [1] (although, once you look at it, it's pretty straightforward, as almost all of the species are either one-shot dubious teeth taxa or are referred to other genera).

[edit] Phosphatodraco
Icarus, could you please explain the tag you put on Phosphatodraco? How is it wrongly categorised? I cannot find any pterosaur articles categorised Tree of Life. Cheers. --Gazzster 10:16, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
- I added {{ToLCleanup}} because the article would benefit from having a taxonomy box added, and also from having a little bit of cleanup (putting the reference in common Wikipedia format, in particular). I don't see any problems with the category; I used the Tree of Life cleanup template instead of the normal cleanup template because it's about a living (well, extinct now, but you know what I mean!) organism and would benefit from having a taxobox. I've just added a stub template to it, too. Don't worry, it looks like a great start for an article, those templates just give a heads-up as to what would make it better. They're there partially to attract the attention of other editors who can help to make those improvements. --Icarus (Hi!) 00:11, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
