Improved to Good Article status by PaleoGeekSquared (talk). Self-nominated at 18:41, 30 May 2018 (UTC).

  • Passed its Good Article review today. ▼PσlєοGєєкƧɊƲΔƦΣƉ▼ 18:42, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
  • New enough, nominated day it passed GA status. Prose size of 8k is well in excess of required 1.5k. Article written in neutral manner. Each section has inline citations to reliable sources. Only hit by Earwig is "Centro de Pesquisa de História Natural e Arqueologia do Maranhão" which can not be modified. No other copyvios detected. Hook format is good, generally interesting hook. Fact is directly supported by inline citation. Offline citation accepted AGF. QPQ complete. File licenced Creative Commons, so this is fine to run on main page. I'm not certain it displays well at small size, but I'll let the set assembler determine that. The Good Article is ready for main page exposure. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 17:06, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
