Arriagadoolithus
[edit]... that Arriagadoolithus, which are the fossilized eggs of the alvarezsaurid dinosaur Bonapartenykus, were found with the fossilized remains of fungus growing on its shell?

Article new enough and long enough. Article and hook are cited. Should the article note that the brooding was not thought likely in Agnolin 2012? Also the hook is rather wordy and could be trimmed a little to be more concise.--Kevmin § 21:12, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
- Fixed the article on that point. Here's an attempt at a more concise hook: Ashorocetus (talk | contribs) 23:14, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
* ALT1: ... that fossilized fungi were found on an Arriagadoolithus shell, the eggs of the alvarezsaurid dinosaur Bonapartenykus?
- This flows a little better to my reading. Im not sure the alvarezsaurid dinosaur descriptors are needed for Bonapartenykus. That information is in both Arriagadoolithus and Bonapartenykus after all.--Kevmin § 23:59, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
- OK. I think the descriptor "dinosaur" should be included so people have some context for what they're looking at. Ashorocetus (talk | contribs) 17:30, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

Time to get this show on the road. Minor edit made, source read over again. Thanks to Kevmin for earlier review. ALT1b is good to go. Drmies (talk) 01:49, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
