God's sense of humour[edit]

Would the The Zuiyō-Maru carcass be an example of this? 86.134.53.8 (talk) 12:25, 20 June 2017 (UTC)

Crystal Palace Dinosaurs[edit]

These should be mentioned - bizarrely they are 'buildings.'

And would a link to [1] be appropriate? 86.134.53.8 (talk) 12:28, 20 June 2017 (UTC)

Non-dinosaurs[edit]

Needs a section covering animals that are sometimes mistakenly thought to be dinosaurs: pterosaurs, plesiosaurs and the like. —Kazitor, pending 13:12, 28 June 2018 (UTC)

Agreed. And I'd add DimetrodonWikipedia to that list. I was going to say, "more closely related to us than it was to dinosaurs", but that seems to be a bit of an exaggeration. Spud (talk) 13:36, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
How about "Distant cousins"? ☭Comrade GC☭Ministry of Praise 13:39, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
I thin that's perfectly reasonable. No hyperbole there. Spud (talk) 13:51, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
Brief section added (and 555 bytes too!) —Kazitor, pending 10:52, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
Super! Spud (talk) 10:59, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

Too much snark[edit]

Much of this article is humour, and it seems to block out some important content.--HedvigsenSkreonk here 10:45, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

Dinosaur theme parks[edit]

Could some of the 'scientific but fun' dinosaur theme parks be mentioned - the Crystal Palace monsters (see above), this place and others. Anna Livia (talk) 20:36, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
