Proposing that the article for Carcharomodus be merged into Carcharomodus escheri per WP:OVERLAP. The genus is monotypic, C. escheri is the only species in it, and the former article is only one sentence long.
It's more likely that the species will be permanently moved to either Isurus subserratus or Carcharodon subserratus, depending on how the argument by this paper[1] is received by shark authorities. Species name changed due to priority rule. Carcharomodus was doubted since at least 2018, but there's not much publications on the species to get a confident consensus IMO. Fossil shark taxonomy is really messy. Macrophyseter | talk06:16, 22 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Works for me. @Plantdrew I'm fine with moving this page's contents to Carcharomodus for now if that's the policy. @Macrophyseter We can always come back to this in a couple of years once De Schutter's paper has had time to settle. I'll put a reminder on my calendar for May 26th 2026; betting now this will probably end up as Isurus subserratus. — Kodiak Blackjack (talk) • (contribs)13:14, 24 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
