- This is my first review, if I did anything wrong please feel free to point it out.
- Article was promoted to Good Article status on July 21, 2024 and nominated on July 27, 2024. So it is new enough. It has 16308 characters (2508 words) "readable prose size". Both hooks are cited.
- I would prefer ALT1 over the default hook because it's more interesting. Non-professional readers may have difficulty understanding "the earliest ornithischian dinosaurs", but "dinosaurs living at the equator" is very vivid. Anyone can imagine it in their mind. ——🦝 The Interaccoonale Will be the raccoon race (talk・contribs) 00:33, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- I would agree with the second hook being better having had time to sit on it. It's also more of a clear cut fact that won't change with time or what one includes within Ornithischia. LittleLazyLass (Talk | Contributions) 06:43, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- Should the word "early" be added before "dinosaur" in the sentence "demonstrates dinosaur presence in equatorial latitudes" ("Palaeoecology" section) ? As far as I know, there are some dinosaur fossils in Egypt during the late Cretaceous, when Egypt was located at the equator.——🦝 The Interaccoonale Will be the raccoon race (talk・contribs) 08:14, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
