Poposaurus edit

Restoration of Poposaurus gracilis

  • ... that the Triassic archosaur Poposaurus (restoration pictured) walked on two legs like a dinosaur, but was more closely related to crocodiles?

  • Nice expansion but the hook does not seem referenced, certainly not next to it as the rules require. Johnbod (talk) 14:40, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
OK, I added a referenced line similar to the hook in the article's lead section. Smokeybjb (talk) 18:18, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Ok, ready to go. Johnbod (talk) 18:20, 18 December 2011 (UTC)


Comment: I'm afraid "walked on two legs like a dinosaur" doesn't work well for me. I don't think a dinosaur such as a Brachiosaurus walked on two legs. You might want to rephrase that part of the hook. --PFHLai (talk) 08:40, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
