zh:孔子鸟/de:Confuciusornis - 4-2

Confuciusornis is a genus of crow-sized prehistoric bird from the Early Cretaceous of China, approximately 120 million years ago. Like modern birds, Confuciusornis had a beak, but close relatives of modern birds such as Hesperornis and Ichthyornis were toothed, indicating that the beak evolved convergently in Confuciusornis and living birds.

  • there is a definition in the firsts sentences. i think its introductory--es:Usuario:FAR
    • (I admit to reading through this page a bit hasty.) Can you change the introduction to a separate paragraph, with the essential stuff: Founded, purpose, became military, best known for, demise? After all, on other Wikipedia that first paragraph will be the entire article. Aliter 14:02, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
    • Ok, I´ll do it, but I thought, the complete article was small, and that it was easy to traslate. Can you explain to reading abit hasty? My English isn´t very good. es:Usuario:FAR
      • ("a bit hasty" - rather fast, without enough enough attention to details.) The point is that I didn't give it enough attention the first time.Aliter 13:20, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • The english, german, norvegian russian, bulgarian and polish versions are longer and, I think, different. It would be nice to create a bigger article from all different languages (from other languages to english) and then translate it (from english) into other languages. If someone finds the resulting article too long he still can translate only the first part as usual. Ares.it 19:36, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Many wikipedias have this article, but there seems to be much to gain from translating between each other as they focus on different things./Johan Jönsson 20:42, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It can serve as a model for other villages. This is now the most comprehensive page in English anywhere about this little town.
