 * What's a prosomal appendage?  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 19:00, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
 * An appendage attached to the prosoma, added explanation. Ichthyovenator (talk) 20:42, 15 September 2018 (UTC)


 * How big's Jaekelopterus?  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 19:00, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Added. Ichthyovenator (talk) 20:42, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
 * You got a parentheses inside a parentheses, and for undefined undefined, you're gonna wanna have the parameters |adj=on and |sp=us in this instance so it reads "2.5 meter"  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 21:14, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Removed paranthesis and added parameters. Ichthyovenator (talk) 09:32, 16 September 2018 (UTC)


 * After you get above 12 inches, start using feet  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 19:00, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Got it, fixed. Ichthyovenator (talk) 20:42, 15 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Note in the future, Greek language and Ancient Greek are very different  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 19:00, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Of course, should have linked Ancient Greek. Ichthyovenator (talk) 20:42, 15 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Is this paraphyletic?  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 19:00, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, but no source specifically states that "Carcinosoma is paraphyletic". Is it okay to state that "it was recovered as paraphyletic" anyway? Ichthyovenator (talk) 20:42, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
 * If they say or imply it with different words it should be fine  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 21:14, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
 * It's not commented on at all in the study. Ichthyovenator (talk) 09:32, 16 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I wouldn’t put it down then, I guess it’s clear enough in the cladogram that there’s something going on here  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 15:30, 16 September 2018 (UTC)


 * ref no. 16 is not formatted right  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 19:00, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Fixed. Ichthyovenator (talk) 09:32, 16 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Something wrong with the formatting of ref no. 2  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 19:00, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Formatting here based on how formatting was done for ref no. 5 in Spinosaurus as that is also specifically to the supplementary information of a paper. Ichthyovenator (talk) 09:32, 16 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Formatting of ref no. 5 is inconsistent
 * like the last name is in caps and somehow a different font size, you use “P34,” and I can’t tell if this is supposed to be a book or not  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 15:30, 16 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Replaced source altogether, its information was repeated in the next source where it is cited in the description and added a new source where it was used in "classification". Ichthyovenator (talk) 09:12, 17 September 2018 (UTC)


 * For ref no. 8, use   User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 19:00, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Done. Ichthyovenator (talk) 09:25, 17 September 2018 (UTC)


 * ref no. 12 isn't formatted correctly  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 19:00, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
 * it’s just missing a publisher and an ISBN (if it has one), and the author’s first and last name aren’t separated by a comma  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 15:30, 16 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Fixed, also added the publisher. Ichthyovenator (talk) 09:12, 17 September 2018 (UTC)


 * File:Carcinosoma Size 2.svg, File:Adelophthalmus irinae.png, and File:Carcinosoma newlini telson.png need source lines to verify they're accurate  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 19:02, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I'll add sources, shouldn't be hard as the sources were used for the text as well. I assume this goes for all size diagrams and reconstructions (e.g. other eurypterids too)? Ichthyovenator (talk) 09:32, 16 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Replaced File:Adelophthalmus irinae.png pending the addition of a source, added sources to the other two images. Ichthyovenator (talk) 09:12, 17 September 2018 (UTC)


 * I see this article uses American English so for all the undefined undefined, you have to add |sp=us because the template defaults to British English  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 21:14, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Done. Ichthyovenator (talk) 09:32, 16 September 2018 (UTC)


 * the doi for ref no. 2 isn’t linking. You should probably just use for all the refs to get rid of the little syntax problems, or, in this particular instance, you can use  to get it to link <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva;background:#E6E6FA;border:solid 1px;border-radius:7px;box-shadow:darkblue 0px 3px 3px;">  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 15:30, 16 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Used the doi template. Ichthyovenator (talk) 09:27, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * the page number is just the doi without punctuation, the PMID isn’t linking, and you need a PMC 2865068 which’d make the url redundant and unnecessary. You can either use and fill out the parameters or  and  <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva;background:#E6E6FA;border:solid 1px;border-radius:7px;box-shadow:darkblue 0px 3px 3px;">  User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 13:41, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Used . Ichthyovenator (talk) 19:19, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * wait, so if a ref has a PMID and PMC, then you need to add those in replacement of the url. I think you can do in this case You also might want to check your other 4 journal refs for PMID and PMC numbers <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva;background:#E6E6FA;border:solid 1px;border-radius:7px;box-shadow:darkblue 0px 3px 3px;"> User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 01:57, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
 * but that won’t stop it from passing, so I guess I’ll just go on ahead and close it. You still might wanna do that though <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva;background:#E6E6FA;border:solid 1px;border-radius:7px;box-shadow:darkblue 0px 3px 3px;"> User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 21:24, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I've added the PMID back and added the PMC but I do not see why I'd need to replace the url? Sure it links to the same thing but I doubt most readers are familiar with that "PMC" or "PMID" means and just clicking on the title is in that case much more intuitive. I tried looking, but I do not know how to find the PMID and PMC numbers, if there are any, for the other journal refs. Ichthyovenator (talk) 21:35, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
 * The template should automatically link to the page if there’s a PMC so it’s as if there is a |url parameter (it still hyperlinks the title), which makes the |url parameter redundant. To find PMC and PMID, just go to https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov and search the title. If nothing comes up, it doesn’t have a PMID or a PMC <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva;background:#E6E6FA;border:solid 1px;border-radius:7px;box-shadow:darkblue 0px 3px 3px;"> User:Dunkleosteus77 &#124;push to talk 00:26, 20 September 2018 (UTC)
