Support: This article does not contain any relevant unique information because only a few taxa are within oviraptorosauria that are excluded from caenagnathoidea. Internal taxonomy of oviraptorosaurs has been controversial, as is stated in this article, so the exact makeup of this taxon is uncertain and may be subject to change in the near future (e.g. the inclusion of Caudipteryx or Avimimus). Any new information that could be added to expand this page would be equally applicable to the parent taxon (oviraptorosauria), so the existence of this article is completely superfluous. In fact, some of the text for the intro paragraph is copy and pasted from the other article. Therefore, I propose this page be merged into Oviraptorosauria and Caenagnathoidea be left as a redirect. --A Cynical Idealist (talk) 19:22, 22 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
