- 00:0600:06, 26 July 2024 diff hist +16 m Ceratosaurus Added predominantly to modify the alluvial sedimentary rocks. This is because while it is technically true that the Morrison formation contains shallow marine rocks, these form the lowest unit (Windy Hill Member) of the formation, and do not pertain to the rocks in which Ceratosaurus remains are recovered.

- 02:4702:47, 22 May 2024 diff hist +28 m Ouranosaurus Very minor grammar edits to make the beginning of the second paragraph of the paleoecology section flow better. Also hyperlinked rebbachisaurid to Rebbachisauridae. current Tag: Visual edit

- 05:1105:11, 3 May 2024 diff hist −93 m Ouranosaurus Deleted a sentance stating that Ouranosaurus was known from the Kem Kem beds and Bahariya formations of Morocco and Egypt respectively. I can find no reference to any specimens referred to Ouranosaurus outside of the Elrhaz formation. If such references can be provided, the sentence should be added back. Tag: Visual edit

- 00:1600:16, 26 April 2024 diff hist +554 m Ouranosaurus I have added clarification to the statemenet that Lurdusaurus and Nigersaurus were the most abundant herbivores in the Elrhaz formation. This claim is made in Sereno et al. 2007, however they cite Taquet and Russel, 1999 as the source of this informaiton. Reading Taquet and Russel, 1999, I find that this is not supported, as they claim Ouranosaurus is the most abundant element of the site. Tag: Visual edit

- 23:5523:55, 25 April 2024 diff hist +311 m Ouranosaurus I exanded on the comparative section of Ouranosaurus's vertebrae to other sail backed animals. Noting its similairty not only to Spinosaurus, but to modern crested chamaeleons and the temnospondyl Platyhystrix. I also clarified the term "sail-backs" to directly refer to sail-backed synapsids to provide clarity. Tag: Visual edit

- 18:5518:55, 16 April 2024 diff hist +7 m Takydromus sexlineatus Changed this section to note that T. sexlineatus can drop its tail like many other lizards (not just geckos). current Tag: Visual edit

- 18:0718:07, 14 June 2023 diff hist −3 m Proplatynotia I fixed the spelling of the specific epithet of Proplatynotia. Previously it was listed as "longirostratia" when it is in fact "longirostrata." (Borsuk-Bialynicka, 1984) current Tag: Visual edit

- 20:1020:10, 3 March 2022 diff hist +454 m Iguanomorpha Added a citation (Gauthier et al., 2012) for Iguanians being the sister to the rest of squamata under morphology. Also clarified that there are ~11,000 species (changed from 13,000) of squamates but that only ~2,000 of them are iguanians. Tag: Visual edit
