    Lacks notability; lacks reliable sources Kent G. Budge ( talk) 18:38, 21 September 2020 (UTC) reply

    The article is a stub created by a user no longer active at Wikipedia. It is nothing but a description and link to a single image allegedly from the Library of Congress. The actual image link appears to be to a blog. I can find no mention of "Monuran trackway" at Google Scholar, nor does "Monuran" "Robledos" bring up anything (the trackway is claimed to be in the Robledos Mountains.) I'd propose a merge with Monura, but nothing in this stub is properly sourced, so deleting altogether seems in order. -- Kent G. Budge ( talk) 18:38, 21 September 2020 (UTC) reply

    The big problem with this isn't sourcing: it's that there's no sign of significant notability. People write papers about single or small groups of specimens all the time; nothing wrong with that, but this is the bread and butter of scholarly publishing. If it were a case of "everyone in the field knows about these fossil tracks," that would go some way towards making this a notable thing. I've looked at the paper presented here, and it doesn't appear to mention this particular specimen; based on another paper I saw, I'm inclined to view the article under discussion as a piece of original research interpreting this track as being that of a creature in the order in question.
