The image used here is identical to that of Mantellisaurus?--MWAK (talk) 15:07, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

I drew the image that is currently in the artical and it used to be in the Mantellisaurus artical, but I made a mistake. It is based on Gregory Pauls skeletal which was in his 2000 Scientific American book of Dinosuars labled as Iguanodon atherfieldensis. In 2006 he created Mantellisaurus from Iguanodon atherfieldensis so I asumed that that skeletal would therefore be Mantellisaurus. However acording to his new paper that the specimen the drawing is based on is actually this new genus Dollodn. I have drawn the proper Mantellisaurus, here

Just to clarify, Both of these skeletals at one time were clasified as Iguanodon atherfieldensis. But have been split up, C is mantellisaurus and D is Dollodon. [[1]]. Steveoc 86 (talk) 16:27, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for the clarification. I'll immediately insert the, quite beautiful, other picture!--MWAK (talk) 18:17, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
No problem, and thanks! Steveoc 86 (talk) 19:16, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
