Hi! Since you've worked on most of the Bulbasaurus page, would you be willing to bring it to GA status? A Wikipedia colleague of mine is working on Pokemon articles and is interested in improving as much articles related to the franchise as possible, so they'll need your help in you bringing it to GA. If you bring it to GA, we'd really appreciate it. Thanks! PrimalMustelid (talk) 22:09, 23 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for reaching out! My time to edit is extremely limited these days, which is why I tend to stick to image review. So I probably couldn't take the lead on this but would be happy to contribute. Lythronaxargestes (talk | contribs) 14:45, 24 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hiya! I'm the colleague in question (Been stalking this, sorry if I jumpscared you). I'm largely unfamiliar with the paleontology side of Wikipedia, but I'm willing to help improve this; any guidance would be greatly appreciated for this subject. Looking over the subject at a glance, what areas would you say need to be worked on before a potential Good Article nomination?

One main thing - and this usually takes the most time - is just updating the article with subsequent literature. A cursory look on Google Scholar suggests there isn't a ton to write about Bulbasaurus, but it may be worth looking at general dicynodont or geikiid research (including phylogenetic analyses). The other main thing is that I wrote this article at a point where my prose was very inaccessible, especially in describing anatomy, so that probably needs a second pass.

@Lythronaxargestes What's the standard process for updating material? Is the information consistently the same between updates, or is the information shifting over time and needing replacement? Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 16:29, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There will always be new academic papers published, which might add new information or overrule existing information - either way is possible. Lythronaxargestes (talk | contribs) 18:56, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
