Talk:Struthiomimus

message: I've been kinda distanced from the paleoscene for the past few years, but I recall a few years back a discovery hinting at ornithomimid filter feeding ala flamingo. I never read any in depth treatment of the subject, so I don't know if the fossils were of struthiomimus or some ornithomimid, but I'm sure one of you guys know. It may have some bearing on the article.Abyssal leviathin 00:24, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I think it is cute, though having a chum who has a largely horizontal posture nearby may help highlight the posture. Did you feel like getting out the coloured pencils and colouring it a nice Ostrichey or Cassowary colour (like the Ornithomimuses in Prehistoric Park ;)). We do need to get some more text though. I don't have any on Struthiomimus....cheers, Cas Liber 06:34, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The posture section needs to be revised as it is... while walking the posture was horizontal in theropods, but that doesn't mean they were somehow "stuck" in that poition like a statue ;) Dinoguy2 14:37, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Also, it's possible they got around tilted up, a lot of birds do. I don't think we need a horizontal animal in the picture -- that's going to lead down a road of trying to show animals in their most typical posture in drawings (which would actually be on the ground asleep for most theropods), which is a silly way to go. I didn't want to stick it right next to the text about posture though.  I put it here so that it would be easy to find once someone get around to expanding the article, not to start agitating to have it included straight away. John.Conway 13:34, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Guys, are you sure that Struthiomus was also discovered in Hell Creek Formation? It's to strange because this site (The Paleobiology Database) don't say that. The fossil sites that are mentioned in the link are Alberta, and New Mexico, but not Montana (or a nearly state of the Hell Creek Formation). The formation of the Late Cretaceous New Mexico that also say here is the Kirtland Formation. What isn't an error? Also in the history I see that the one that wrote this was a IP, someone that can't be always trust in his editions. --Dropzink 21:52, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: According to DinoData, S. altus is from the Horseshoe Canyon formation, Judith River group, not Hell Creek. Dinoguy2 03:12, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Struthiomimus's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

From Anserimimus: 
From Ornithomimidae: Xu, et al. (2011).

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 23:21, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

message: Almost all reference to Struthiomimus sedens was removed form this article a while ago, what's the reason for this? FunkMonk (talk) 21:13, 15 May 2017 (UTC)
