Plot

Don't mean to be mean guys, but it looks to me as if the plot and trivia section are copywritten material from another website. If permission was given to use this material, or if it's use is legal for some reason I am ignorant of, please forgive, and let me know. Otherwise, I will rewrite the plot(or someone else can yes please, it's kind of fun, but don't make it too long please). I deleted "trivia" because I found another source for I think all the information that was there and put that info elsewhere in the article.--RainbowWerewolf (talk) 06:58, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Original Channel

The infobox says the Hallmark Channel, but a lot of sources say it debuted on ABC. --RainbowWerewolf (talk) 07:56, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Zippo's species

The Cast section contradicts the Featured species section. Is his name
Zippo Steneosaurus (Cast), or is his name
Zippo Stenosaurus (Featured species)?

The Featured species section links Stenosaurus to Cricosaurus (which does not mention Stenosaurus at all, although Stenosaurus does redirect to Cricosaurus), but then suggests Stenosaurus is short for Stenonychosaurus, adding that Stenonychosaurus is a type of Troodon, which both articles indicate is questionable. The Troodon/Stenonychosaurus articles show bipeds, whereas the Steneosaurus/Stenosaurus/Cricosaurus articles show 4-legged (or 4-flippered?) species.

For whatever it's worth, Zippo was a biped, so it seems unlikely he would be named after a quadruped. However, the Dinotopia miniseries Featured species section does point out other errors in the show's pronunciation and depiction of prehistoric species. This article should not correct any of the show's errors or outdated information, but should list whatever the show depicted, with notes wherever that differs from current scientific data.

Besides all that, bipedal Dick Wolf is not a quadruped wolf,^{citation needed} so why can't Zippo Stegosaurus have whatever name he wants?
