December 2012[edit]

Your recent editing history at Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. SkepticalRaptor (talk) 21:14, 3 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm reverting your edits AGAIN. Take it to Talk:Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event if you want to actually be a collaborative editor. Just because you don't want to converse, doesn't mean you get to edit war. SkepticalRaptor (talk) 21:16, 3 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

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 could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you.

Plesiorycteropus[edit]

Sorry, but I have reverted your edits. The article is an FA, and additions must conform to the citation format of the article. In addition, they must be rigorously proofread. These requirements extend to all articles, of course (including Rahonavis), but especially here. Thank you, Drmies (talk) 18:14, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I adjusted the text for what I noticed in the article, and added the proper citation.

I didn't catch the part that about Plesiorycteropus being of Afrosoricidian, so if that is correct you have to put it on the talk page and point it out. You really need to read wikipedia:Citation_templates#examples and other wikipedia information on proper citations. Fill in as many responses as you can to a citation, it may not be possible to answer all.

This is the entry for most journals, and there are examples for other types of publications too. {{Citation | last = | first = | last2 = | first2 = | title = | journal = | volume = | issue = | pages = | year = | month = | url = | archiveurl= | archivedate = | doi = }} Or you can use 'ProveIt' that is under: preferences- gadgets. I think you have potential to contribute to Wikipedia, but if you don't go by conventions your edits won't get a chance. Sidelight12 Talk 23:01, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Chaoyangopterus, thanks for adding the new paper to the Plesiorycteropus article. I wrote most of the article, but missed this new paper, which is an important piece of new information. I feel like it's better to wait before we change the order in the taxobox, but it does look likely now that it's a tenrecoid/afrosoricidan. Ucucha (talk) 23:15, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Using references[edit]

Hi,
I'm not disputing your changes to Desmostylus, but you are modifying referenced content without adding your source (the PLoS article). That way you make it look like one reference is supporting something not mentioned in that reference.

Banguela[edit]

Hallo Chaoyangopterus! In the original version of your article Banguela you wrote "Because dsungaripteroids are occasionally recovered as derived azhdarchoids, it is possible that toothloss has occurred even more often." I changed the "more" to "less", thinking that the point to be made was that if dsungaripterids were Azhdarchoidea they must have been originally toothless and secondarily developed teeth, meaning that was one case less of lost teeth. It seems that I was mistaken in this but the only scenario that I can think of in which dsungaripterids being azhdarchoids leads to an extra occasion of toothloss, would be that Banguela descended from a dsungaripterid that had secondarily developed teeth, with Banguela losing the teeth for the second time in its lineage. However, this would be contradicted by its being a basal dsungaripterid.

Kind regards, --MWAK (talk) 12:13, 1 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well, there is no precedent of teeth having ever been redeveloped in derived vertebrates (some possible situations in frogs nonwithstanding), so it's more reasonable to assume azhdarchoid pterosaurs lost their teeth multiple times, with Banguela being an obvious example of toothloss in a basally toothed group --Chaoyangopterus (talk) 15:19, 1 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
But how can it be concluded from this that a position of the Dsungaripteridae within the Azhdarchoidea would lead to an extra case of toothloss compared to a phylogeny in which dsungaripterids are not azhdarchoids? If the ancestors of Banguela did not redevelop teeth and had always been toothed pterosaurs, this would be true whether they are azhdarchoids or not. Also, in the phylogeny of Kellner Azhdarchoidea were, at least basally, edentulous, from which Unwin concluded that Dsungaripteridae could not have been azhdarchoids.--MWAK (talk) 14:47, 1 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Because in the analyses where dsungaripteroids are azhdarchoids they're recovered as part of Neoazhdarchia (see Myers et al 2013, for instance; it's in the Bakonydraco article), meaning that toothlessness occured at least three times in azhdarchoids (first in tapejarids, then in the last common ancestor between Azhdarchidae, Chaoyangopteridae and Thalassodromidae, and then in Banguela), or even four times (in Myers et al 2013, Dsungaripteridae is recovered as the sister clade to Thalassodromidae, meaning that toothloss occured independently in tapejarids, azhdarchids + chaoyangopterids, thalassodromedids and Banguela). This is definitely more than in the traditional view that Dsungaripteroidea is outside of Azhdarchoidea, in which toothloss would have only occured twice across these two groups.--Chaoyangopterus (talk) 18:37, 1 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Good point. However, now you seem to take for granted that Dollo's Law applies and that inclusion of the Dsungaripteridae within Azhdarchoidea would make the possession of teeth a azhdarchoid synapomorphy. But, as far as I'm aware, that is not the result of any actual cladistic study. I must admit that I haven't read the Headden & Campos paper: if they make this point, it should certainly be included in the article. But if they don't, we may at most refer to the problem by mentioning the Kellner-Unwin controversy about it. In both cases, the relevance of Dollo's Law should be made explicit. I also think that in the article the term "dsungaripteroids" should be consistently replaced by "dsungaripterids" as both the actual clade definitions of Dsungaripteroidea, by Unwin (Germanodactylus + Dsungaripterus) and Kellner (non-archaeopterodactyloid pterodactyloids), denote far more inclusive groups — in fact in each case probably including the Azhdarchoidea! Andres has just published a concept that might be closer to what you have in mind: the Dsungaripteromorpha (non-neopterodactyloid neoazdarchians). Headden hinted in his blog that Banguela might in fact be a somewhat more basal form outside of Dsungaripteridae, which would make it a basal dsungaripteromorph in Andres's phylogeny.--MWAK (talk) 06:36, 2 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Reacquisition of lost features provided they are not under substantial constraint to remain lost has been found to be widespread throughout vertebrates. The notion that it's only a feature of "lower vertebrates"--referring to frogs (can someone get any more taxon-biased!?)-- is absurd. Declaring something subject to Dollo's Law should not be an assumption but the conclusion after an extensive review of all constraints placed on a feature vs its reevolution or NOT. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.199.98.16 (talk) 15:43, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Largest mammal[edit]

The new article only says "may", "appears", etc. about its conclusions, so changing a lot of articles while writing "x was the largest mammal" etc. is misleading. The paper itself does not state it as fact, merely asd possibility, so we shouldn't either. It is impossible to make exact measurements with such scrappy material as used in the paper, and the author appears to acknowledge this. FunkMonk (talk) 02:47, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding original research[edit]

As you're probably aware, Wikipedia does not use original research. That means that all material added must be completely supported by the sources cited for them, and the sources cited must meet WP:RS.

If, for example, a source only mentions the conclusion "ABCD," we can mention "AB," "BC," or "CD," but not "EFG." This source does not mention Inanna or Mithras. The pages cited from Campbell's A Hero with a Thousand Faces do not connect Inanna's descent into the underworld with Christianity.

This is why your edits to the religion articles have been reverted, and will be reverted again. The best way to edit any article, especially articles relating to the humanities, is start from a source and paraphrase that instead of writing something and then finding a source.

Concerning the Demise of Creodonta[edit]

Have you seen this article about the newly discovered "hyainailourine" Kerberos langebadreae? [10] It seems that Hyaenodontidae has been promoted to order as "Hyaenodonta," and now comprises of Hyaenodontidae and Hyainailouridae.--Mr Fink (talk) 02:00, 25 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, Hyaenodonta or Hyaenodontida have been used in several papers (see for example the Apterodon source paper). --Chaoyangopterus, 03:42, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
However, I have not read any papers where either family has been placed in Afroscorida. Which paper was that?--Mr Fink (talk) 01:49, 26 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
See the discussion in the page. Further information can also be seen at here
If you review said sources in those pages, you will find no support for it. Further, citing a webpage written by a non-specialist in fossil mammals from almost a decade ago which provides no evidence/sources for speculation is not a justified source for such a claim. 24.131.66.18 (talk) 12:48, 26 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
As the IP points out, palaeos is not an authority: that, and the Kerberos paper still posits the hyaenadontids as being laurasitheres, and makes no mention of Afrotheria, let alone placing Hyaenodontidae+Hyainailouridae in Afroscorida.--Mr Fink (talk) 14:05, 26 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Further, palaeos cites Wible et al. (2007) in a speculative manner in the sense of perhaps if x is y and y might also have some tangible connection to z, then there might be something going on with x and z. However, this is not how to carry out science in the first place. Additionally, it is important to understand that taxon sampling within Wible et al. (2007) and subsequent matrices is not strong for placental mammals and the authors never advocate a position that they think or support afrotherian relationships for *Eoryctes* (and they NEVER ever bring up hyaenodontids!). Further, Goswami et al. (2011) which expanded the matrix with several more tenrecids (afrotherians) found *Eoryctes* as a sister to *Solenodon* (a eulipotyphlan in every molecular analysis) and *Eoryctes*+*Solenodon* as the sister to Tenrecidae. Their data set, when constrained for molecular supports, see their supplementary material, finds *Eoryctes* within Laurasiatheria. So this tenuous suggestion that *Eoryctes* having some vague afrotherian affinities is evidence for afrotherian affinities with hyaenodontids that is advocated on palaeos is demolished by this. 24.131.66.18 (talk) 14:16, 26 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries, please[edit]

Hello Chaoyangopterus, and thanks for your contributions. A couple of general editing suggestions for you to consider:

  • Please make a habit of providing an edit summary when you make a change to an article. Doing so makes it easier for your colleagues here to understand the intention of your edit.
  • Plus, it will be easier for you and your co-editors to collaborate on articles if, instead of making multiple consecutive edits in rapid succession on an article, you use the "Show preview" button to view your changes incrementally before finally saving the page once you're satisfied with your edits. This keeps the page history of the article less cluttered.

Thanks in advance for considering these suggestions. Eric talk 21:59, 29 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Feathered dinosaur[edit]

I have reverted you again.

  1. The list says "preserved with evidence of feathers". There is no concrete evidence, just yet. This is something that would need to be discussed on the talk page.
  2. The ref you gave was hard to find. Please give refs so one can find them.
  3. Use same style of ref formatting that is already in the article. If you had, it would have helped find the source.
  4. Don't do ALL CAPS
  5. Most importantly, when I did find it, it turned out to be from a conference abstract that was scheduled to be given this week. Conference abstracts are generally not a good ref. They have undergone review, such as a published article. They can be difficult to find and generally only the abstract is available.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Chaoyangopterus (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I would like for you to lift my block because A) your accusations appear to be rather slim, B) it has been done on bad faith, by a user that breached several violations. ~~~~

Decline reason:

Checkuser verified abuser of multiple accounts. There is not a "vague correlation", there is an unambiguous equivalence of these accounts. --jpgordon::==( o ) 20:42, 31 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

I would say that a checkuser "Technically indistinguishable" is hardly slim... Peridon (talk) 17:11, 31 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
They do not cite the reasons for this comparison other than some vague correlation between me and another user.
