- It's great that you put the name of the period and the numerical range in the taxobox.
- as is standard for tree of life articles User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk 02:51, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
- I've seen a fair amount of fossil articles that only do one or the other. starsandwhales (talk) 14:54, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

- In the description, I think you should link to or explain these units of measurements.
- That sounds like WP:OVERLINK User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk 02:51, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
- That's fair, but I still don't know what cc and cu in are. I'm assuming cubic centimeters and cubic inches? But I've never seen those measurements written like that. starsandwhales (talk) 14:54, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
- I mean, have you not watched a hospital drama where they were like "I need 300 cc stat!" User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk 03:17, 15 March 2020 (UTC)
- Ok, fair.

- The point about self domestication in the paleobiology section is a bit unclear. What does this mean? What specifically does this have to do with vocalizations?
- added explainer “... due to a process of self domestication (becoming more and more docile which allows for a more gracile build)” and this gracile build includes changes to the skull (which are already specifically mentioned) which could potentially have increased their vocal repertoire User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk 02:59, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
- This is much clearer! starsandwhales (talk) 14:54, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

- Is there any information about predators? Do we know if they lived in groups? Can we infer anything else about their social behavior?
- I mean, the part about being in a society would imply they lived in groups, and I’m sure leopards were a problem but no one’s really talking about predators; in Palaeoecology, I listed the predator finds in the area User:Dunkleosteus77 |push to talk 02:51, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
