[edit] Antorbital fenestrae in Stegosaurids

Hi Anky-man!

Thank you for your several contributions to Wikipedia's dinosaur articles. You've recently edited Stegosaurus to say that Stegosaurus had a small antorbital fenestra, the hole between the nose and eye. I'm not finding anything which verifies this: one of my books specifically states they didn't have antorbital fenestrae, and Palaeos.com's Stegosauridae page shows many skulls, all without antorbital fenestrations. I've reverted for now, but am certainly willing to look at evidence which supports the idea. I'm also cross-posting this to the Stegosaurus talk page with th hopes that this matter can be cleared up. Best wishes and happy editing, Firsfron of Ronchester 16:59, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

OK, I replied and gave the references, although I mistakenly put these under a separate section under Discussion. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Anky-man (talk • contribs) 19:22, 11 April 2007 (UTC).
Great! Thank you for responding so quickly. I've left further comments on the article's talk page, asking if this is limited to S. stenops or has been found in other Stegosaurus species. Maybe it's best to keep this discussion in one place, and it's better to have this on the article talk page, where everyone can discuss this, but I did want to thank you for the correction with reference. Your username is Anky-man, which I'm assuming is in reference to Ankylosaurids; it's nice to see someone with an interest and excellent knowledge of Thyreophorans contributing to Wikipedia. :) Don't worry about editing mistakes (like putting talk page comments in a new section); any talk page comment can easily be fixed. Also, on a completely unrelated note, you can sign your talk page messages by typing four tildes (~~~~). Best, Firsfron of Ronchester 20:33, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for moving my previous contribution to the antorbital discussion section. I am still learning the tricks of this place. Would you also move my other two comments on Stegosaurus names to their appropriate sections? Thanks, Anky-man 21:22, 11 April 2007 (UTC)Anky-man
I moved the middle comment, but user:Casliber had already responded to your last comment on the page, so I didn't refactor that one, as I didn't want to confuse anyone by moving multiple comments. Don't worry about mistakes, though: just keep doing what you're doing! And feel free to ask me (or anyone else) for help. It takes a while to get the hang of editing, but you'll get it. Best wishes, Firsfron of Ronchester 03:19, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
Forgot to mention: I've reverted my revertion of your edit: your contribution is back in place. Firsfron of Ronchester 03:25, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Wow, So many new cool additions to Stegosaurus! Very cool. Firsfron of Ronchester 16:20, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] An Automated Message from HagermanBot

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button Image:Wikisigbutton.png located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment.

[edit] A non-automated welcome

Cool! Love the images of the formations. Cool. Did want one of Morrison Formation for Stegosaurus article many moons ago. Would be good to get in Allosaurus one too.cheers, Casliber | talk | contribs 01:31, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dinosaur Park Formation

There seems to be a mistake, as Dropzink added the image, whereas I added the sprawling floral and faunal lists, but if the image is wrong, it should definitely be removed. Thanks for catching that! J. Spencer 02:46, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

I removed the problematic image. J. Spencer 02:50, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:NaturitaType.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:NaturitaType.JPG. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 23:11, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Como Bluff

Hi. I have noticed that you have edited dinosaur pages related to Wyoming in the past, so I'm appealing to your expertise. A recent edit to Como Bluff added the Dakota Formation to the list of formations found there. I followed up by wiki linking to the Dakota Formation page, but on that page I noticed that in Wyoming, the Dakota Formation is now called the Cloverly Formation. I'm nowhere near an expert, so I put a call out for expertise on the Talk:Como Bluff page, but I also thought I would see if you had a few minutes to check out the page and correct it if necessary. Thanks. - CosmicPenguin (Talk) 03:00, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
