Tabulate?[edit]

I think the information in some of the sections (particularly film and games) could be well-adapted into a table format, particularly for the one-line entries, as in: "Lizardman" is a reptilian character featured in the fighting game Soul Calibur and its sequels./"Reptites," a race of reptilian humanoids, appear in the RPG Chrono Trigger./"Riptor" is a genetically engineered raptor-human hybrid featured in the SNES Fighting Game, Killer Instinct./etc. Thoughts?

Update Literature section[edit]

Harry Turtledove has added to the Worldwar/Colonization series with his novel Homeward Bound. [Also making this as a template for such requests]

Dinosaurs Attack![edit]

That trading card series had humanoid reptiles in it, specifically cards 28-29. I'm too lazy and indifferent to write it up on the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.31.118.241 (talk) 05:27, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

sources[edit]

this will mostly be bare links. Because.

http://www.reptilianagenda.com/hist/h031104a.shtml Clearinghouse of possible sources. Don't use for contentious claims.

http://books.google.com/books?id=V8W2rM0bEWcC Do a search for specific terms.

http://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&lr=&cites=12323803906694201613 Ask me on my talk page if you want an excerpt, the journal is gated.

http://www.jstor.org/pss/497688 Medusa counts. ditto for this one (JSTOR is gated)

http://books.google.com/books?id=v7lVNOG-bekC One of the books mentioned in the first link.

There are plenty more. Just make sure (for the purposes of this article) that the source refers to a reptilian humanoid not just a reptile.
