  • ALT1: ... that soil particles found with one species of Ditrichites moss (pictured) indicates ground level habitat?
  • Source: Tan et al 2025: "Lower parts of plants often attached by soil. The attachment of plants to soil (Figure 4A–C) suggests that this fossil species was terrestrial."

    General: Article is new enough and long enough
    Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
    Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
    Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
    QPQ: Done.

    Overall: Article is new enough and long enough. Hook facts are interesting with a preference for ALT0. Image confirmed to be CC-BY. Copyvio tool finds some close paraphrasing with a personal gems website. However, given that the same material has been at Burmese amber since before the site's inception, it appears to be a case of them copying us.   Chris Woodrich (talk) 23:34, 4 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

    Style issues

    [edit]

    Regarding this edit: using a single more specific link, omitting links, and rephrasing to separate links are all techniques recommended to avoid seas of blue. Nikkimaria (talk) 00:21, 17 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

    @Nikkimaria: None of the instances you are pointing to in this article qualify as egregious instances of MOS:SOB. In a 9742 character long article you are asserting that 4 instances of two or three links is a SOB issue, its not. Also I have twice now noted that "-era" is grammatically and scientifically wrong wording for geological time groups. --Kevmin § 14:12, 17 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

    In a 9742 character long article you are asserting that 4 instances of two or three links is a SOB issue, its not. Not sure the basis for this claim. One such linking pattern would be a SOB issue; 5+ in a short article is a significant one. Feel free to propose alternative rephrasings. Nikkimaria (talk) 23:55, 17 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
