Smok (archosaur)
(
 * ... that fossils of a dragon have been found in Poland?
 * Reviewed: Acacia falcata
 * Comment: Thought it might be humorous, not actually a dragon of course but a prehistoric reptile. Not sure if it should say "so-called dragon" to be proper.

 * Symbol confirmed.svgthing looks good, length, date created, and hook all pass. No copyvio issues that I see. If you want I have suggested an alternative, should you go for the original I would add "so-called" to the hook.-- Kev  min  § 09:08, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
 * alt1 ... that fossils of a Smok have been found in Polish clay pits?
 * Alt1 is good too. Even if people don't know that Smok means dragon, the name is still unusual. Smokeybjb (talk) 18:27, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
 * alt2 ... that the Smok, an extinct genus of large carnivorous archosaur, is named after the legendary Wawel Dragon?
 * Alt2 may be less mysterious, but I think it's a little clearer, and I hope that explicitly showing the link between an extinct reptile and a legendary dragon is still cool. — Kpalion(talk) 23:50, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
