Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Megistaspis, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Caeca and Tremadoc. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Thanks for your contributions to Hippopharangites. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it consists of machine-generated text and the article lacks an explanation of what the subject is and a plain explanation of why it is important. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Northernhenge (talk) 18:38, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

At this moment, I only wish to create a stub for Hippopharangites consisting of the text that was originally in the halkieriid article. I may get to improving it later. African Mud Turtle (talk) 13:01, 1 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
