Your submission at Articles for creation: Hipparum (October 26)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by JamesBWatson was:

Much better sourcing is needed for this to be accepted. In particular, answers to the following questions would be welcome.

(1) Can you give a page number in the cited source for where the information given is to be found? I can't find any mention of Hipparum in the book, and for some reason it is not listed in the index. (2) Can you give any other source for it? I have been able to find nothing about it anywhere apart from misreadings of words such as "Hyperion" as "Hyperium" by optical character reading software.

(3) Can you clarify how the species can be known to have lived in both the Miocene and the Pliocene if it is known only from one fossil skull?

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

Copying text from Wikipedia pages

Wikipedia's licensing terms require that any re-publication of text copied from any Wikipedia page be cited to where it has been copied from. That includes copying from one Wikipedia article to another. Copying without saying that you are doing so is not only plagiarism but also, and more importantly, infringement of the authors' copyright. If you wish to read more details on this you may look at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 20:54, 26 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
