Semi-protected edit request on 25 April 2024[edit]
Edit to this article in the "Illness and Death" section: change the link on "Enalio-Saurians" from the misspelt "Eurapsyda" to the correct "Euryapsida." Although not a scientifically used term nowadays, the link to the correct article is less confusing and helps give context to Anning and her contemporaries' research.

The caption of the picture in the infobox says it is from "before 1842", but the text says her dog Tray, depicted in the picture, was killed in a landslide in October of 1833. Shouldn't the date be adjusted ("c. 1833" or "before 1834") to reflect that fact? Minturn (talk) 17:37, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You can paint a dog that has died, you know. He doesn't look very lively, frankly. For art "before 1842" just means "at an unknown date, 1842 (or 1841 strictly) at the latest". Johnbod (talk) 17:51, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly, it's not a photo, so it's not necessarily an actual scenario. FunkMonk (talk) 17:56, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
