		The Excellent New Editor's Barnstar A new editor on the right path
		Fantastic job bringing that inaccurate Anthropornis diagram to our attention, keep it up!   User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk  14:03, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I did not know I had to get my art reviewed before posting it. I tried my hardest to make the art accurate by looking at pictures of the fossils and art of related species, but it's still very hard to accurately depict the animal when I'm drawing with a mouse and in the case of Brazilosaurus, have a really unclear fossil to reference off of. I'm sorry for not knowing that I had to get my art reviewed beforehand, but saying that inaccurate art is vandalism is incorrect, as the help page for vandalism specifically states that if an edit is meant to be constructive, it's not vandalism. Firewing The Wyvern (talk) 13:47, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, thank you for understanding! I thought it was a vandalism because I misunderstood that your edits were once sent back by the bot. I'm sorry about that. Anyway, I hope you will do your best from now on! Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 14:17, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

yeah, the bot did send my edit back but that's because it thought I was vandalising. I'm rather new to editing on wikipedia, thank you for being polite Firewing The Wyvern (talk) 13:31, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I just noticed that the preprint of the new paper https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.01.22.427827v1.full is under CC-BY 4.0, which means that the images can be uploaded to Commons, if you're interested in doing that. Hemiauchenia (talk) 23:45, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oh nice, it is a bit strange that actually published one is NC though. If I can I'd like to upload that later. Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 23:49, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The CC-BY license is the valid one as it was published first before the paper, so it's fine to upload the images. We had the same situation with Stegouros where the preprint was CC-BY but the paper was not, and that's not caused any issues. Hemiauchenia (talk) 23:51, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Now I uploaded two images and added these in the page. I did typo in the file names, as "Chuandinella" though... Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 05:43, 16 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

	The Original Barnstar
	Awesome work on the Weygoldtina article!! Vermont (🐿️—🏳️‍🌈) 04:14, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Speaking of "Evolution of", pages, there are a bunch of other that also deserve scrutiny

• Evolution of mammals
• Evolution of spiders
• Evolution of the horse
• Evolution of insects
• Evolution of tetrapods

I agree with you about the Evolution of fish being a mess. I've not had good experiences with Epipelagic. His recent habit has been to wholesale copy text from CC-BY papers into articles, like this edit, which often require cleanup. While possibly legally OK, it to me intellectually and morally murky at best. Hemiauchenia (talk) 19:53, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like, yeah these articles not updated for a long time, like using old version of Nobu Tamura's reconstructions, and I see genus name Geratonephila that is already synonymized into Nephila in 2015. Recently I fixed some outdated information in Evolution of insects. Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 23:06, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

(P.S. this message is from trolling user who I dealt with)
Your source which you had sent to me is about maximum size of Megalodon, not average size of Megalodon.DinosaursKing (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 05:00, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly. And that source is formally released paper of your source of "16 m averaging Megalodon" poster. Seeing that the actual paper does not have 16 m average size, I think there was probably a problem with the assumption. And one of the most recent formally published papers discussing the average total length shows that Megalodon averaging 10.5 m. Well, that's nothing you should care about, anyway. What you should care about is whether you get indefinite block or not. Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 08:07, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I've been seeing your edits on the subdivisions of the arthropod taxobox. It would be preferable if your additions were accompanied by citations, especially for those groups that have no article of their own. Sources would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! ☽ Snoteleks ☾ 01:14, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oh I see, thank you for advice. (should be told to fossiladder as well) Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 06:41, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You're absolutely right, I was planning on doing so ☽ Snoteleks ☾ 10:30, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

the scansoriopteryx skeleton on the main plate had a full hole in the hip socket, and on the counterslab plate, the was distorted during decomposition. What do you think ? Dinomarek (talk) 13:46, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Well to be honest I am not especially good at that, probably Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Palaeontology is good place to ask that. I just reverted your edits because of bad reference or not good placement of sentence. Since whole article of Scansoriopteryx refers Alan's paper, probably page itself needs revision. Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 02:12, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about the edits I was just trying to help :( sorry for it appearing to look like vandalism, maybe could you give me some advice to do better? 2607:FEA8:FDF:2400:4F3:FF79:DEE8:7B47 (talk) 17:07, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Well, Wikipedia is not the place to post your own interpretations. Do not arbitrarily judge Lagosuchus as a dinosaur, or create fictitious clades like "Palaeoniscorolepiformes". Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 17:10, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry about classing lagosuchus as a dinosaur and making a fictitious clades like paleoniscorolepiformes I classed lagosuchus as a dinosaur because this channel had put Lagosuchus as a dinosaur I'm so sorry il do better next time 2607:FEA8:FDF:2400:4F3:FF79:DEE8:7B47 (talk) 17:18, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have a question maybe could you please make a wiki article about tujiaaspis please :D 2607:FEA8:FDF:2400:4F3:FF79:DEE8:7B47 (talk) 17:21, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please could you make an article about tujiaaspis pretty please 🥺 2607:FEA8:FDF:2400:4F3:FF79:DEE8:7B47 (talk) 17:35, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly but I am waiting for PlacodermReconstructions to create reconstruction for it after their pc get back, as it is hard to describe without image. Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 02:14, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia basically cannot use images other than Creative Commons (excluding non-commercial) and Free license. I'm not obligated to make an article at the request of someone who doesn't understand that, stop posting. Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 16:24, 12 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, it is regarding this change by the IP. This article is routinely targeted by IPs. Could you verify whether the changes are correct? Thanks. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 10:47, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Since unsourced it is not acceptable probably. Looks like similar edit by IP user is done in Epicyon article as well. Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 12:07, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Ta-tea-two-te-to, I hope you're doing well.

Did you base your redirecting of Strigilodus tollesonae to Strigilodus off of WP:OVERLAP, or is there a specific guideline pertaining to species/genus? Thanks! Mooonswimmer 05:13, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Only one species in the genus, so the article should be titled as the genus per WP:PALEO guidelines. Strogilodus includes single species, S. tollesonae, so it is not needed to separate articles for technically same things. Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 09:47, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for helping out at Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2024 February 14. I note you copied part of the closure text from the 8 February DRV. If closing in future, please use {{subst:drt|Closure summary here}} at the top and {{subst:drb}} at the bottom instead. This helps ensure the behind-the-scenes code all goes in correctly and that other DRV listings from that day don't get mingled. Thanks! Stifle (talk) 09:07, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Sorry for mistaking that. Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 09:39, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

あなたは日本人大学生のようですので日本語でコメントさせていただきます。悪しからずご容赦ください。 なぜ私の記事を攻撃するのですか？薩摩翼竜のページの削除理由以外にも宇都宮聡氏の個人ページの英語版についても削除申請されましたね？なぜですか？山登 太郎 (talk) 09:03, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

確かにあなたの行動について私自身の気に障るところはあったものの、私としては英語版Wikipediaのポリシーに従って改善しようとしていただけのつもりです。宇都宮氏のページの削除依頼に関しては、英語圏で特筆性がないものと思い依頼を行いましたが、のちに特筆性に言語は関係ないとコメントを頂いたので取り消しました。それに関しては僕の勉強不足であり申し訳ないと思います。しかし、他の編集に関しては、あなたの翻訳ミスや雑多な内容を整理するために行ったものであって、攻撃を行ったつもりはありません。薩摩翼竜に関する意見も、他の未記載恐竜や翼竜が英語Wikipediaでどのように扱われているかに従っただけです。ただ、私個人的に中島保寿さんとこれらの記事について相談したところ、「このような記事の立て方は少し目に余る」「Wikipediaの記事に関してはもう少し慎重になってほしい」「広報はあくまで古生物学のためであって、特定個人のためではない」というコメントを頂きました。あなたの宇都宮さんに対する尊敬の意は素晴らしいですが、機械翻訳を通しただけのような記事を作ることは却って宇都宮さんの迷惑になるものと思います。そのあたりは気に留めて頂ければありがたいです。とにかくこの件で気分を害されたのであれば申し訳ないと思います。 Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 09:39, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

ご返信ありがとうございます。Wikipediaの編集に関しては私のほうも不慣れで上記のようなお考えの方（中島教授）がいたことに申し訳ないと思います。ただし、貴殿がSNSで発言されている「日本語版で少しやらかしている」発言は、個人攻撃としか思えません。日本語版では履歴にある通り、何度も議論を重ねて記事に特筆性があるということが認められた結果であります。（不慣れな部分で迷惑をかけたことはあったと反省もしております。）また、著作権の件に関してもご返信をいただく前に削除となってしまいましたが、川崎氏に確認されましたか？お忙しい方なのでこの議論に巻き込むことは望みませんし、貴殿を含め疑義を持たれた方がおられたので私個人としても削除で致し方なかったと思っております。長々と記載しましたが、今回のやり取りも今後の編集につなげたいと思います。 山登 太郎 (talk) 10:30, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

当該のツイートは削除させていただきました。申し訳ありません。あなたが編集をこれから改善していただくことを願っています。 Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 10:47, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

また、日本語Wikiの薩摩翼竜の記事にはアンハングエラのサイズ比較図を参考のため載せておこうと思います。知られている近縁種などの既存の画像を使う方が比較的安全だと思いますし、もし種としての画像が必要なのであれば、Wikipedia:WikiProject_Palaeontology/Paleoart_reviewで依頼もできると思います。（ただ、部分化石からの発見なので復元は難しいかもしれないですが・・・）サツマウツノミヤリュウがペレットを吐くイラストを投稿していた方でWikipediaアカウントを持っている人を知っていますので相談してみますね。 Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 11:14, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ta-tea-two-te-to様、ご返信ありがとうございます。私は英語が苦手ですので日本語にて失礼します。いろいろなやり取りがあったにも関わらずご配慮いただきありがとうございます。こちらのほうでもイラストやフィギュア画像についてはガイドラインをしっかり遵守し、著作権者様と相談して掲載するように進めていきます。引き続きよろしくお願い申し上げます。 山登 太郎 (talk) 10:16, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

山登 太郎, Please see WP:OWN. Ta-tea-two-te-to has been trying to fix your articles, not attack them. Hemiauchenia (talk) 19:05, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Hemiauchenia, for your feedback. Sure. 山登 太郎 (talk) 10:20, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Good job on this! Just note that you should ensure you have the correct taxonbar ID. If one doesn't exist, you can create a new one at Wikidata. - UtherSRG (talk) 14:41, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oh I see, I haven't noticed that Mazoscolopendra article I based on got taxonbar, apparently it is not shown in that article. Ta-tea-two-te-to (talk) 15:14, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Right. The taxoboar only shows if the Wikidata has valid taxon IDs on it. Mazoscolopendra now has the taxonbar because I added ID to the Wikidata. - UtherSRG (talk) 15:25, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
