I've listed this article for peer review because I've expanded it and I want to submit it for GA. Thanks, Nergaal (talk) 22:52, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

- "Unlike most other groups of dinosaurs, most tyrannosaurids are known from very complete remains." "known from" confuses me.
- "This has allowed a
widevariety of research into their biology." - "Alioramus is known from the remains of an individual estimated at between 5 and 6 meters (16.5 to 20 ft) long" Same issue as above.
- "Tyrannosaurus, Tarbosaurus, and Daspletosaurus had skulls which exceeded 1 meter (3.3 ft) in length,[10] with the largest Tyrannosaurus skull measuring over 1.5 meters (5 ft) long." with + -ing constuction makes for an awkward read.
- "Unlike earlier tyrannosauroids and most other theropods,
however,the maxillary and mandibular teeth of mature tyrannosaurids are not blade-like but extremely thickened and often circular in cross-section." - "Tyrannosauridae is uncontroversially divided into two subfamilies." Why is "uncontroversially" specified, readers will assume that.
- "such as FMNH PR2081 ("Sue") most likely weighed over 5400 kg (6 short tons)" Short tons has already been linked in the lead.
- "There is
somelimited evidence of social behavior amongsome of thetyrannosaurids." - "It has also been proposed that tyrannosaurids had such protofeathers." "proposed" doesn't seem to be the right word, maybe "theorized"?
- "Bony crests are found on the skulls of many theropods, including numerous tyrannosaurids." "numerous" is vague.
