Talk:Apatosaurus

Brontosaurus is the alternate name for Apatosaurus, and if I remember my history correctly Apatosaurus was discovered first and that when the supposed "Brontosaurus" was found and named some time later, the scientists didn't realise it was the same animal as Apatosaurus until much later. With this in mind, the first name given to the creature was Apatosaurus and is so the official name. Shouldn't the article name be changed to Apatosaurus instead then?

 * Agreed. The Third Doctor even notes it has two names. --Nyktimos 04:03, February 15, 2010 (UTC)

Do we have an IU source for the above, since we're using it on the page? Not just that it has two names, but that one name is more "correct" than the other. Najawin ☎  07:10, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
