This page needs to be expanded, doesn't it? The citation for Mantellisaurus atherfieldensis should be (Hooley, 1925) [originally Iguanodon]. Also, I want you to create sections about the taxonomic history, behavior, diet, lifestyle, and geography of Mantellisaurus, and add references for Mantellisaurus. The names "Cetiosaurus" brachyurus, "C." brevis, Heterosaurus, Sphenospondylus, and Vectisaurus should be removed from the Iguanodon page. Of these five names, "C." brachyurus, Heterosaurus, Sphenosondylus, and Vectisaurus should be placed in synonymy with Mantellisaurus. "C." brevis, however, is actually a dubious eusauropod (Upchurch et. al., 2004), and referrable to Pelorosaurus, although iguanodont material assigned to "C." brevis is Mantellisaurus. Because "C." brevis is a macronarian, it should be included not in the synonymy of Mantellisaurus, but in the Pelorosaurus species list.
What did Paul (2006) comment on the synonymy of "Cetiosaurus" brachyurus, Heterosaurus, Sphenospondylus, and Vectisaurus with Mantellisaurus?

McDonald (2011) can find no diagnostic characters for either Sphenospondylus or Vectisaurus and concludes that both are nomina dubia referable to Iguanodontia indet. McDonald doesn't address whether Heterosaurus is a nomen dubium or not. 68.4.61.168 ( talk) 00:05, 17 January 2012 (UTC)Vahe Demirjian
As pointed out by Lapparent and Stchepinsky (1968), the holotype of Heterosaurus neocombiensis is a chimera of at least three different groups: an iguanodont, an ichthyosaur, and a plesiosaur. The iguanodont elements have been redescribed by Martin and Buffetaut (1992), but the non-dinosaurian elements have yet to be restudied.

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Mantellisaurus's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Hello there! I'm from one of the most reputable paleontological sites, and I can say with confidence that we have two different species: http://www.polychora.com/dinolist.html#M . Here we see the following: Mantellisaurus Paul, 2006 Mantellodon Paul, 2012 (Опять Тамыч всё должен спасать...)The source is authoritative and always updated. Thanks for your attention, 185.16.29.38 ( talk) 13:19, 15 January 2020 (UTC) A.K.A. Tamaran
What? This list including ALL dinosaurs, and what the source for "Nomen Dubium"????????????????????????? 185.16.29.38 ( talk) 13:19, 15 January 2020 (UTC) A.K.A. Tamaran — Preceding unsigned comment added by 185.16.29.131 ( talk)
