[edit] Series 3 T.Rex and boating Lake Monster

Does anyone have links to these interviews? Id really like to see them, by the way, the Pristichampas could be the boating lake monster. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.154.162.158 (talk) 22:12, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

I created the summary for Titanis, which is confirmed. However, I looked back some time later, and found that it was copied almost word-for-word in the Tyrannosaurus section (except for the link...). This might have been because the person who made it didn't know how to make infoboxes, or something along those lines, and copied the whole thing, except replacing certain words. Whoever made it, please provide a link! As for the Boating Lake Creature, please provide a link for that too. And why is it in the section for the advertising campaign?--Ac02111993 (talk) 07:14, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Alphabetizing (2)

I don't want to go on and on, but the new layput (creatures from tghe series, from the campaign, etc) looks extremely ugly. I'm not trying to be like the Doctor Who artciles, I'm giving an example. See List of Torchwood monsters and aliens. Alphabetized, with the book and series creatures mixed up. List of Doctor Who villains. See WP:LIST#Organization. ----- Cuddly Panda (talk · contribs) review me! |my chatroom] 00:45, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

I presume due to the lack of reply noone is watching this page Helloooo? I was thinking, if we can't alphabetize (as of yet) could I make the 'creatures from the series' section has subsections that are alphabetical? Eg:

==Creatures from the Series== ===A=== ====Ammonite====

What do you think? ----- Cuddly Panda (talk · contribs) review me! |my chatroom] 10:09, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

hey u forgot that the raptors killed stephen to

The reason for the lack of replies was due to the fact that I was under the erroneous impression that if I simply stopped responding, you would go away. Unfortunately, I was wrong. As for your new proposal I still say no. The page has enough subsections already and is going to get longer as it is with out you adding more convelutions. Nubula 14:29, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Prim pterosaur.jpg

Image:Prim pterosaur.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

[edit] Era

What does returned to era mean, returned to modern era or prehistoric era. User:Puncharoo Read my page first 12:01, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Returned to its natural time zone. ----- Cuddly Panda (talk · contribs) review me! |my chatroom] 08:03, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

t-rex isnt proofed!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.215.87.49 (talk) 17:14, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Proved, and no, it isn't. ----- Cuddly Panda (talk · contribs) review me! |my chatroom] 09:52, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Advertising campaign

The creatures from the campaign section is very speculative, and not really needed. It's pretty obvious that the Millipede is a beefed up Arthropleura, just to help promote the show, and the Bird of Prey is simply a Pteranodon, for the same reason. If the creators were going to include them in the show, they would have done so by now. These were to promote the original series. Series 2 is closing and still no Millipede or Bird of Prey. ----- Cuddly Panda (talk · contribs) review me! |my chatroom] 09:52, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Veiwer Created Creature

IT HAS NOT BEEN WON BY A GERMAN! Whoever keeps posting this is lying and should stop misleading eveyone. The competition hasn't finished yet and even if they have think someones won they can still change their mind. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.130.35.181 (talk) 20:52, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Dimetrodon

Who said the Dimetrodon were comfirmed? Please place a link to prove it. and who posted that the allosaurus and moa, where did u get these? and please do answer

This same person claims giganotosaurus, t rex and other dinosaurs are showing. Spinosaurus, the chances of that appearing are slim as it has never been in the documentaries. Who is Mark Nole? Apparently he was played by phillip glenister in the last two episodes of series 2 but that never happened. Who ever is doing this come forward! A creature never mentioned in these plots of yours, Priste Champas is the only creature confirmed. This proves these plots are fake! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nickcutterfollower (talk • contribs) 10:57, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Article clean-up

There are lots of places in this article that need to be (at least in my opinion) re-written to be more Encyclopaedic (is that a word?). I'm not familiar enough with Wikipedia to know how to put the correct tags on so thought I'd at least put a comment on the Talk page in the hopes that someone else would spot it and do so :) RobertWrayUK (talk) 23:36, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Mer/Future Predator Scientific Name

Whoever posted it, how do you know its scientific name? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.130.43.33 (talk) 19:51, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fictional creatures articles

Future predators now have their own article, I was wandering whether the Mer should have one too, or possibly every fictional creature from the series should be split off. And whoever is re-adding the predator section, why? Their should not be two articles on the same thing.----- Cuddly Panda (talk · contribs) review me! |my chatroom] 00:51, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Personally I think Rex should have his own page, because he appears more than twice, and therefore so should the future predator. (By more than twice, I mean not including a whole load of cameos by various creatures at the end of Episode Twelve.) Chad Sladerri. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.145.242.55 (talk) 19:12, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Future Shark

I put in an image for the Future Shark, but odds on it will be deleted. However, before then I would appreciate all attempts to edit it to a reasonable size, because I can't work out how to do so. If there is an obvious reason why no one else can do this, forgive me, I'm a bit slow today. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fictional author (talk • contribs) 17:54, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

The shark resembles the dunkleosteus from the sea monsters. Mr. Loner (talk) 10:41, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Do we want...?

Just wondering - do we want the names of the humans killed in the individual infoboxes? They seem to have sprung up and I'm not sure what, if anything, we should do about it. All responses appreciated. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fictional author (talk • contribs) 16:54, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

i want there to be 3 fatalities caused by the scutosaurus because they could have killed stehpen to by confusion or accident, i also want to mention that they were also killed by the other creaturs and the same with the arthroplura —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aslan10000 (talk • contribs) 20:26, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

The people the creatures killed are not notable. It messes up the infobox, and do we really need it? ----- Cuddly Panda (talk · contribs) review me! |my chatroom] 08:46, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

only notable people, like stephen, should be named 69.108.78.70 (talk) 00:48, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

And they shouldn't all claim to have killed Stephan. Only one, two max could have delivered the fatal blow. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fictional author (talk • contribs) 20:34, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Pristichampas

Just to let everyone know, I changed Priste Champas to Pristichampas, as a second interview ([1]) spells it as Pristichampas, and there was a creature with that name.--Ac02111993 (talk) 15:59, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

no you mean pristichampus right? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.215.78.227 (talk) 16:32, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Yes, sorry. But I think I should change it to Pristichampsus, as it's been mentioned in an interview (http://www.radiotimes.com/content/features/primevalinterview/).--Ac02111993 (talk) 07:04, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, someone already got there.--Ac02111993 (talk) 07:06, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Home era

I think we should put in returned to home era instead of just Returned to era, because some people are not sure what era are we talking about. Mr. Loner (talk) 10:40, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Advertising campaign; notability?

Advertising is potentially a notable feature of a TV show, but not on a creature list. The main page (Primeval) could have a section under "Production". Plus, if the creators were goig to include those two, surely they would have by now (already series three!). The same applies for the plants, they're not that important, and there are just two. And the title of this page if list of creatures in Primeval. ----- Cuddly Panda (talk · contribs) review me! |my chatroom] 08:14, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Alphabetization (3)

This article is getting very long, we really need to consider alphabetizing it. With Series 3 on its way, this is gonna get enourmous. ----- Cuddly Panda (talk · contribs) review me! |my chatroom] 02:15, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] T-rex

The t-rex has been comfirned to appear in Primeval season 3 here —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mr. Loner (talk • contribs) 08:43, 22 April 2008 (UTC) Umm.... no it hasn't. Some dummy put T-rex on Primeval Wiki alothough it hasn't been confirmed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.224.90.148 (talk) 00:00, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
