@Hawkeye7 and PrimalMustelid: WP:DYKCRIT The hook fact should be cited in the article, no later than the end of the sentence it appears in. I can promote after this is done. Lightburst (talk) 16:16, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

@Lightburst: Sorry, I'm having trouble understanding. I cited in the limbs paragraph, "Unlike Anoplotherium where one species (A. commune) is didactyl (two-toed) as opposed to all other species which are tridactyl (three-toed), all species of Diplobune are tridactyl." Do you want me to mention artiodactyls as a whole in that sentence? PrimalMustelid (talk) 17:01, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

@Lightburst: Pinging again in case you hadn't seen my previous comment. PrimalMustelid (talk) 12:14, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the ping and sorry for the hold up. I see it now, the word use was different than our hook but it says Unlike typical "even-toed" artiodactyls and Anoplotherium where one species (A. commune) is didactyl (two-toed) as opposed to all other species which are tridactyl (three-toed), all species of Diplobune are tridactyl.[29] Lightburst (talk) 14:06, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
