Species list vs information on species
[edit]I'm currently translating this article into Basque, so I have a full perspective on the content. Homo heidelbergensis section should be expanded, I think that we could just use the lead of the article itself, is pretty good. Also, the debated species should be added to the best known species (i.e. Homo erectus and related). This would make the list of species near the bottom of the article unnecesary, and the article easier to read and with better flow. Theklan (talk) 15:25, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
Evidence from the fossil record
[edit]Should the section Evidence from the fossil record be more centered in the fossils found? It seems like a summary of the article itself, but with little evidence. Theklan (talk) 18:34, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
Stone tools section in evidences
[edit]The stone tools section inside evidences is really similar to the section about stone tool making above. They should be merged, or a section should be included inside the previous fossil record section. Theklan (talk) 18:36, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
New fossil discovered in turkey which states that early apes could have migrated from Europe to Africa Copperbasalt (talk) 05:05, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
- The link you provided is a press release summarizing Sevim-Erol et al., 2023, which describes Ouranopithecus turkae. I don't think it provides anything useful for this article. Daask (talk) 00:11, 6 February 2024 (UTC)
Photo error?
[edit]On the Species List near the bottom of the article, under Ardipithecus, mouse over A. kadabba and A. ramidus - they have the same skull photo. Did their skulls really look identical or is this an error?
