Unclear removal[edit]

An edit by an AFAI can see reliable, low-volume, colleague removed info that i would have reformatted thusly:

Species - Basiliscus basiliscus

Family - Iguanidae

Location - Central and South American rainforests, near rivers and streams

Size - 2 & 1/2 feet long including the tail

Diet - Insects, small invertebrates, flowers, and small vertebrates (like snakes, birds, and fish)

Enemies - Large birds of prey, snakes, fish, other large reptiles, and mammals

This animal is not endangered.

They store fat in their tail.

and preserved for others to touch up, rather than removed completely with the ed-summ "Deleted innacurate and irrelevant information." IMO, we should have at least accurate replacements for any mistaken portions. Other assessments?

Sauropsida or Reptilia?[edit]

This animal is currently classified as "Class: Sauropsida", with a piped link to the Reptilia Class. Which is the more appropriate designation, Sauropsida or Reptilia? Seems to me the latter, but I do not wish to make the change at this time without further discussion. Thanks! DiverDave (talk) 14:48, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
