Hi TheGamingMaverick! Welcome to Wikipedia!

Some tips:

  1. A change of the content or images is not "minor" and should thus not be tagged this way. It might be misunderstood as an attempt to deceive your fellow wikipedians.
  2. Sourced content should not be simply removed.
  3. Images that offend your scientific convictions should not be simply removed or replaced with others. See: WP:NPOV.
  4. Do not violate copyright as you did by uploading the Ornithomimus image.
  5. I you feel that the text unfairly favours a certain point of view, the best way to counter this is to find and add reputable sources that express another view. Statements like "most paleontologists believe" are rather gratuitous, merely expressing a "Surely everyone else thinks like I do!"
  6. Read phylogenetic bracketing ;o).

Hi TheGamingMaverick! Your remark on Concavenator: "The previous version of this page only showed the individual paleontologist's opinion and not the views of the paleontological community as a whole" might indicate you are as yet unaware of the principles Wikpedia operates under. On Wikipedia the content should simply reflect the sources. The Concavenator article mentions all relevant sources regarding the purported quill knobs. We might render them a bit more adequately, but we are not allowed to go outside of the sources. So, yes, it can only be a summation of individual opinions of the researchers. The "views of the paleontological community as a whole" are simply irrelevant unless some individual scientist makes a claim about them. If you can find such a source, please add it in the form of "Professor X thinks consensus Y has been reached". If not, you are not allowed to make such claims yourself. Certainly you are not allowed to remove the sourced "individual paleontologist's opinion" because such opinions are exactly what the article should be constructed of!

Hi TheGamingMaverick! You have repeatedly removed this image:

"I'm more scaly than you think"

arguing it incorrectly shows Tyrannosaurus feathered all over, even on spots known to have been scaled. Apart from the fact that the presence of scales in an area does not preclude it having been feathered as well, the image actually shows these areas largely naked! The "dappled" appearance is caused by the scale rosettes. This is perhaps not at once obvious because this particular T-rex wisely chose to enhance its camouflage by having the same colour for its scales and feathers. Hereby, the artist avoided the silly "look folks, it has feathers on its back!" trope. In general, we should remember that there is no such thing as the "perfect image" and that images can be used to illustrate conflicting hypotheses. Therefore they should not be removed when they show a possibility one does not favour.

@TheGamingMaverick: Please don't add templates until you're actually sure how they're supposed to work, contrary to what you did at Saurian (video game). Lythronaxargestes (talk) 00:59, 10 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
