Unclear removal
editAn edit by an AFAI can see reliable, low-volume, colleague removed info that i would have reformatted thusly:
- Species - Basiliscus basiliscus
- Family - Iguanidae
- Location - Central and South American rainforests, near rivers and streams
- Size - 2 & 1/2 feet long including the tail
- Diet - Insects, small invertebrates, flowers, and small vertebrates (like snakes, birds, and fish)
- Enemies - Large birds of prey, snakes, fish, other large reptiles, and mammals
- This animal is not endangered.
- They store fat in their tail.
and preserved for others to touch up, rather than removed completely with the ed-summ "Deleted innacurate and irrelevant information." IMO, we should have at least accurate replacements for any mistaken portions. Other assessments?

Sauropsida or Reptilia?
editThis animal is currently classified as "Class: Sauropsida", with a piped link to the Reptilia Class. Which is the more appropriate designation, Sauropsida or Reptilia? Seems to me the latter, but I do not wish to make the change at this time without further discussion. Thanks! DiverDave (talk) 14:48, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
