My image review at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Nasutoceratops/archive1 has become unexpectedly "interesting". A reality check or checks would be appreciated. Gog the Mild (talk) 13:53, 3 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

At first blush, I agree. Wikipedia is a general publication, not a scientific one, and arguments against fully explaining the limitations of the reconstruction usually rely on knowledge that's not going to be common for readers, so "journals aren't expressly explaining what is conjecture, so we shouldn't" isn't a strong argument for me. More broadly, I think there's a lot of thorny issues with non-expert reconstructions (for paleoart to maps) and the like getting vetted; ultimately even if we're doing it to the best of available research there's a lot of original artistry involved.

Hi Ian, are you looking after this one? Gog the Mild (talk) 18:38, 12 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Still on my watch list, I gather a few things outstanding on the source review... Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 15:28, 13 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Evening all. This has recently been nominated by a first timer. It is very reliant on a single source. This causes me to twitch. Any thoughts or advice? I am happy to be told that I am twitching unnecessarily. Thanks. Gog the Mild (talk) 21:11, 13 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

I think given the copyright issues identified it should just be speedily archived. I would have similar broadness criterion concerns. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 00:45, 14 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
