I wonder whether there should be a redirection of deinonychosaurs to this page. See this article for more information. [1] And this is one type under this name. Neuquenraptor argentinus gathima 03:22, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Deinonychosaur should be a redirect to this, yes. The term is derived from Deinonychus, so there is no confusion possible. Phlebas 10:33, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Parvorder/Infraorder

This is listed as an infraorder on various deinonychosaur pages, but according to this page it is a parvorder below the infraorder Coelurosauria (which is also what I always remembered). Has there been a classification overhaul regarding this group that lists it as a seperate theropod infraorder besides Coelurosauria? Jerkov (talk) 11:15, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for catching that. looks like somebody changed it and nobody reverted. Dinoguy2 (talk) 17:02, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Switchblade-like claw" phrase in opening paragraph

How is a claw like a switchblade specifically? The meaning this phrase implies is contradicted by the section below which discusses their function. The claws of this type of creature did not swing open or extend with a spring action, nor were they cutting instruments. Comparing them to any type of pocket knife is misleading. I am therefore altering it to 'sickle shaped claw' for consistency. SrJoben (talk) 17:45, 27 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Is this clasification valid

this year alone, Hartman stated Deinonychosauria as valid and the article was peer reviewed https://peerj.com/articles/7247/, so what do you think, I am a little skeptical but still--Bubblesorg (talk) 16:47, 30 September 2019 (UTC) Oh yeah and he states this article also https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-017-02515-y--Bubblesorg (talk) 16:48, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This usage is correct because Troodontidae is closer to Dromaeosauridae than to birds in their tree. 2001:569:7CF0:9300:A47E:5CD:254B:F95 (talk) 17:04, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
