Talk:2022 in paleomammalogy

Please more often also add info about the main conclusion/s (findings) of studies
First of all, thanks a lot for all your efforts in writing this article and keeping it up-to-date!

Could you please more often add more info about the actual content/findings (the main propositions/conclusions) of studies, rather than just the very broad topic (devoid of meaning) of studies?

I think this is already done in some cases, would not be needed in some cases and would be most useful in cases of highly significant studies(/conclusions).

To explain what I mean:

The study "Brawn before brains in placental mammals after the end-Cretaceous extinction" was integrated by like so:

A study on the evolution of the brain size relative to the body size in placental mammals after the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event is published by Bertrand et al. (2022).

I featured it in 2022 in science (where I try to include the basically most significant studies and which links to this page via the wikilink to "Paleoanthropology" in the template at the top) like so:

A study shows that, contrary to widespread belief, body sizes of mammal extinction survivors of the dinosaur-times extinction event were the first to evolutionarily increase, with brain sizes increasing later in the Eocene.

It would be nice if you could edit this item somehow and generally more often (maybe always) include some/more info about the actual content/findings of the studies / the new change-of-scientific-knowledge.

It would be great if you could
 * more often also upload images from the respective study in some cases (especially if the study is highly significiant and even more so if it's in section "General paleoanthropology") and add them to the article if the study is CC BY
 * update the relevant Wikipedia article/s with brief info from/about the study if due there (e.g. when the findings are significant and robust enough to be relevant there)
 * leave out the year (this talk-page-post-feedback refers to all the "year in paleo..." articles) in the text. So e.g. "by Bertrand et al. (2022)" would become "by Bertrand et al." as specifying the year is redundant due to the article title. It could also be good to leave out the reference there as the author names / the entire reference can already be found at the reference next to it and one could keep things shorter this way (e.g. that would mean more space to elaborate on the findings).
