A new genus yet to be named? edit
The position of the authors of the 2008 paper seems to be that Sinopliosaurus weiyuanensis is a nomen dubium and that the teeth named as Sinopliosaurus fusuiensis are those of a new species, only related, not identical, to Siamosaurus.--MWAK (talk) 17:39, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
- Fixed that; not sure where that came from, as it was not italicized either. J. Spencer (talk) 01:25, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
Article name change edit
To avoid future confusion, the name of the article should be changed to "Sinopliosaurus" fusuiensis b/c S. fusuiensis is not in the same genus as Sinopliosaurus weiyuanensis (the authors who named S. fusuiensis were unaware that Young had restricted Sinopliosaurus to the pelvic elements and re-assigned the tooth to Peipehsuchus).Extrapolaris (talk) 03:01, 26 October 2014 (UTC)Vahe Demirjian
