I have nothing but free time and am feeling guilty about not joining the GAN drive, so I'll take this review too. SilverTiger12 (talk) 16:56, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

1. Well-written:

• Clueless reader What are these anoplotheriids mentioned in the lede and first section and why are they relevant? ....And then you switch to talking about anoplotheriines, also without introduction. I recommend sticking to anoplotheriid and mentioning somehow that Ephelcomenus is part of the family Anoplotheriidae.
• Bold Anoplotheriidae in the phylogenetic tree and explicitly state that it is a tree showing the position of Anoplotheriidae in relation to other artiodactyls.
• Gloss bunodont in Description at first mention
• I suggest spelling out which teeth instead of using the abbreviation, i.e. is the prominently elongated and tusk-shaped I¹ first upper incisor.
• Its phalanges may served to excavate burrows,... Are these phalanges claws? Then just call them claws.
• That Choeropotamidae is possibly polyphyletic is entirely off-topic.

2. Verifiable: Earwig detects no copyvio. Close paraphrasing is highly unlikely to nigh-impossible considering the nature of the sources.

3. Broad: Yes

4. Neutral: Yes

5. Stable: Yes.

6. Illustrated: All three images are appropriate and under acceptable licensing.
