I'd like too try my hand at this review; it's my first one, but having participating in reviewing Achelousaurus for FA I feel confidant enough to try a GA review. That said, January is a busy month for me, so I apologize if I'm a bit slow initially.  Luso titan  (Talk | Contributions) 01:10, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks, yeah it should be fine, I'm sure you know what a GA looks like by now... The intention is also FAC later. FunkMonk (talk) 02:13, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Just a random comment, but I noticed D. breedorum is not mentioned in the taxonbox as a synonym, and I couldn't find anything on it in the text. If it is in the Discovery section I would suggest it was placed chronologically below the Dilophosaurus naming paragraph. IJReid { {T - C - D - R} } 03:24, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I removed it; since it is a nomen nudum, it is not a valid name, and is therefore not even valid as a synonym. FunkMonk (talk) 13:52, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
 * In that case, it shouldn't be italicized in the article.  Luso titan  (Talk | Contributions) 13:54, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Gay 2005 italicizes it (keeping it in parenthesis), though, in the only peer reviewed article I know of that even mentions the name. Can't say whether that's incorrect or not. Mortimer doesn't italicize it, though, so even though it's "just" a blog, I could maybe go by that. FunkMonk (talk) 14:08, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Well, the point is it's not a valid scientific name and so it shouldn't be italicized; nomina nuda usually aren't.  Luso titan  (Talk | Contributions) 14:58, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Fixed, along with some things brought up here: FunkMonk (talk) 06:57, 22 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Any news on this, ? Elasmosaurus is soon passed at FAC, so I'd like to get this one ready in time. FunkMonk (talk) 20:30, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I'll probably start tomorrow afternoon, after last exam is over.  Luso titan  (Talk | Contributions) 04:41, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

For some reason in the days since I reserved it I've lost all the drive to do this, is it possible to revoke reviewer status?  Luso titan  (Talk | Contributions) 01:54, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Too busy? Would it help if you got more time? It should be possible to ask an admin to reset it at the GA talk page. FunkMonk (talk) 08:13, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
