Which Makela? edit

"The specific name honoured the late Makela." - I took a look at this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Makela

Now, I assume the author referred to Toivo Mäkelä, since he died in 1979, and the dinosaur was named in 1988. However, it could be any one of them who are currently dead. Can anybody help me? --77.77.252.85 (talk) 18:19, 11 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Whoops, sorry, my bad. It was mentioned before in the text. --77.77.252.85 (talk) 19:16, 11 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Eggs? edit

Various sources state the eggs formerly referred to Orodromeus are now thought to belong to a troodont. Yet this article still mentions eggs as paratypes, so are eggs also known for this genus, or is it a mistake? If a mistake, it should certainly be mentioned these were once though tot be long to this animal, anyhow. FunkMonk (talk) 09:44, 18 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

No, it's a mistake. The eggs, MOR 246 (there is no 249!) are also in the Stenonychosaurus article. Lythronaxargestes (talk | contribs) 15:45, 18 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
