Crichtonsaurus

An article about the genus of dinosaur named after author Michael Crichton. I chose to evaluate this article after scanning the low-importance WikiProject Dinosaur pages. Tamarindrind (talk) 05:07, 12 February 2023 (UTC)

I thought this article was well-written and easy to read, but I had a few suggestions for improvement.


 * The lead section is concise, but doesn't mention the misassigned species - maybe a short sentence about Crichtonpelta would add detail to this part?
 * The link doesn’t work for Michael Crichton’s webpage [1]. This page from Crichton’s site gives a general overview of the author’s accolades and mentions the Crichtonsaurus being named after him, but I wonder if this citation is relevant as the sentence is referring to Bohlin?
 * The Dinosaur Mailing List [6] is down. The email in the source can be accessed through the Internet Archive, or through the DML Archives from April 1994 - May 2021 on Reptipage
 * The last sentence in the history section describing Crichtonsaurus as a member of the Ankylosaurinae still needs a citation
