 * There is already an article at Rubidgea. - Station1 (talk) 22:33, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Is the animal described in page Rubidgina the same animal as described in page Rubidgea? (Is there a palaeontologist on channel here?) Anthony Appleyard (talk) 04:59, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
 * According to this article's only source, http://fossilworks.org/bridge.pl?a=taxonInfo&taxon_no=39100, both Rubidgina and Rubidgea are incorrect and should be Rubidginia. --Espoo (talk) 05:39, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose Fossilworks is not the only available source on the matter. "Rubidgea" and "Rubidgina" are seperate genera, with Rubidgea representing the species R. atrox and others (Interestingly, Rubidgea was also initially designated as a suborder, a concept has since been dropped) and Rudigina representing R. angusticeps. Rubidginia is a suborder as designated by Boettger (1952) and was never identified as a genus by Fossilworks. There are a number of papers, but here's a free one that I think sums up some of the matter well  Macrophyseter &#124;  talk  19:41, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
 * According to Fossilworks, Rubidgina is a nomen dubium and separate genus than Rubidgea, it also states a Rubidginia, which is a suborder, so let's not confuse Rubidgina with Rubidginia, nor Rubidgea, I'd keep this page and also change the taxobox name, which is Rubidgea instead of Rubidgina. As for the suborder Rubidginia, I'd suggest creating a separate article. JurassicClassic767 (talk) 11:07, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Changed taxobox name for now (Rubidgea to Rubidgina). JurassicClassic767 (talk) 11:12, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
