Talk:Multituberculata

message: Since the Allotheria article redirects here, shouldn't there be some sort of explanation of why this is the case in the article?  The word Allotheria appears nowhere in this article.  Lokicarbis 12:11, September 8, 2005 (UTC)
Chiming in a bit late here, but I agree. I've come across several articles that redirect somewhere else, and that word is nowhere to be found in the article. According to this, Allotheria is a subclass of mammals, containing the single order Multituberculata. So I wouldn't say they're the same thing, but a redirect is probably not unreasonable provided someone more knowledgeable than I gives an explanation in the article. --Decoder24 21:52, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Something is wrong here. Multituberculata were not the only order within subclass Allotheria. For example, Docodonta and Triconodonta. The redirect needs to be reverted. --Philo  13:16, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

message: I removed the "Groups within Multituberculata" section from the article because it was a copy-and-paste from  and (1) that page says "THIS PROJECT IS NOT SCIENTIFIC.  IT IS A HOBBY." and (2) I can't find a free license notice on that page. --Fama Clamosa (talk) 09:57, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

Although he says that his project is not scientific, I believe there are no problems with his accuracy and don't see any reason to keep the text if we have permission and it is accurate.

message: Added the family list, but I think the specification just until Families or Genera would be enough... The rest of the taxonomy should be placed in the own genus page instead... Any volounteer??

replies: text: I completely agree; the list seems to be overwhelmingly long, and it generally isn't done this way with other mammalian orders of similar size (fair enough with smaller groups like Sirenia). Since the genus pages exist, I think we can go ahead and do this, unless there are any objections? Anaxial (talk) 07:52, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Since someone took the trouble of compiling this long list, might it not be better to preserve it in a List of multituberculate species? Ucucha 08:03, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: That seems a reasonable suggestion, and not difficult to do. Anaxial (talk) 08:34, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified (February 2018) 

message: The 'Evolutionary History' Section remarks that the oldest species dates back 183 mya and the last went extinct 35 mya. That gives a group life of 148 M years, not the 166 M years quoted in both the article's lead paragraph and the 'Evolutionary History' Section itself; even worse, the latter also mentions 183 M years!
I'm not able to chech the sources so have no idea what is correct. If there is evidence to support an earlier origin and/or later demise (thus extending the longevity of the group to 166 or even 183 M years), the 'Evolutionary History' should be suitably modified. Otherwise, the 166 and 183 should be replaced by the 'supported' figure of 148.Glevum (talk) 18:26, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
