Ferugliotheriidae[edit]

Contributor(s): Ucucha

Since the 1980s, weird teeth have been turning up in ancient rocks in South America. We don't quite know what they are—most likely multituberculates—and this series therefore contains a lot of uncertainties. Possibly it covers two quite unrelated groups of animals. All articles are GAs (thanks to the reviewing efforts of Sasata, Casliber, J Milburn, and Visionholder), so this is a GT nomination. --Ucucha 01:48, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support Although {{Gondwanatheria nav}} has Trapalcotherium third and LACM 149371 last. Is there a reason for the ordering? The topic and navbox should probably be consistent. Adabow (talk · contribs) 04:27, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thanks. I've changed the navbox, as I don't see a good reason to use anything other than alphabetical ordering. Ucucha 12:13, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I think it's worth pointing out that the formatting of the references is inconsistent between the articles. Ferugliotheriidae and Ferugliotherium have the more standard quoted articles, italic journals, while the other three use a different style (which I seem to remember is a style used in a journal you read). If we're bringing these together as one topic, consistency would be nice- I'd go with the former, as it's what the MoS recommends. J Milburn (talk) 15:27, 23 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • I changed the citation style I use on articles about halfway through this topic. I don't think there's a requirement for articles in an FT to be consistent with each other as regards references, and WP:CITEHOW says we shouldn't be changing reference styles.

Would prefer another comment or two on this one. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 03:44, 13 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
