Talk:Dorfopterus

Infobox and US WikiProject banner
Hi, Template:Taxonomy, Template:Speciesbox and Template:Automatic taxobox do not have incertae sedis parameters, so the only option is to use Template:Taxonomy. There's no rule or recommendation as to what kind of template such each taxon use. Regarding the US WikiProject banner, out of the +20 eurypterid GAs and FAs that there are, not a single one uses country WikiProject banners. This extends to other extinct genera (see Talk:Tyrannosaurus, Talk:Velociraptor, Talk:Elasmosaurus, Talk:Australopithecus, etc.). Some eurypterid genera such as Pterygotus have been found in many countries all over the world, including the WikiProject banners of all of them is not factible, and adding country WikiProject banners for some articles and for some not goes against the WP:CONSISTENCY that has been maintained on this topic in Wikipedia ever since 2018. I respectfully ask for these edits to be reverted or not restored. Super  Ψ   Dro  18:55, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
 * You are mistaken. Please read Automated taxobox system/advanced taxonomy and perhaps familiarize yourself with the automated taxonomy system.  Long-standing consensus is to replace taxobox with automated taxoboxes.
 * Concerning talk templates, as I said in the comment, Dorfopterus is endemic to what is now Wyoming, and has significant differences to Tyrannosaurus which had a huge range. Ideally, one would use WikiProject North America for such a wide distribution as the latter, but that is not necessary.  You are comparing apples to finger limes.  --awkwafaba (📥) 19:42, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
