I checked the policies board, and couldn't find anything to address this issue, but maybe I missed it. How should names be entered if they are probably inaccurate? The comic refers to two pre-historic creatures by genus names that don't exist, but are close to real names: Deprotodon and Macropidae. Should the accurate, scientific name stay, or should they be replaced by the names printed in the comic? I would lean towards using the comic name, since the Deprotodon is drawn like a two-legged dinsosaur, but the real Diprotodon is a four-legged mammal.

If needed, use whatever is printed in the comic. You can include a sentence on the Notes or Trivia section indicating any interesting references. - S.S. (talk) 21:09, March 23, 2017 (UTC)
