Merge Proposal
editThis merge proposal is part of a broad project in WP:DINO to consolidate as many of the superfluous clades as possible (WP:REDUNDANT) and make coverage of dinosaurs much more streamlined. To this end, Alvarezsauridae is an ideal candidate to merge into Alvarezsauroidea for the following reasons:
- Most of the content is redundant. The majority of the Alvarezsoauridea article is about alvarezsaurids.
- Most of the scientific literature on these animals treats Alvarezsauroidea as a single whole, rather than two groups distinct enough to warrant separate publications for any given issue.
A mock up of the merged article can be seen here in my sandbox. Comments are welcome. --A Cynical Idealist (talk) 18:36, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
