Hey
@zegh8578 !
I'm doing some research into Dinosaurs; squashing myths, depicting Dinosaurs as they actually looked, examining the timeline, etc...
Any good links you can offer?
Funny you'd mention, since I'm Tweet-following a buncha paleo-heads - some quite serious characters - and one thing that has become a bit of a pet peeve for me, is regular "myth busting", "all the things you are wrong about" etc, I personally find it a bit of a quarrelsome approach to learning and teaching - "how wrong you are!"
BUT - there's plenty of that in the community! I can't reaaaaally think of any other approach here, so... if you're on the Tweeter, try following @TomHoltzPaleo or Thomas R. Holtz, Jr. he is not only one of America's most promiment and prolific paleontologists (and Tyrannosaurid expert), but he is very active online, and has been ever since internet became a thing. He is down on the ground with everyone else, and is not above responding to noobs from time to time. With him, you'll find many other personalities who will often post little didya-know bits and memes and info-pieces, as well as regular links to actual paleontology papers (this is heavy tier shit though
)
@albertonykus or Alberta Claw is another very active poster of paleo-news, big and small, @TheropodaBlog or Andrea Cau is an Italian theropod-expert who posts regularily, and has a blog that is unfortunately entirely in Italian.
If you're not on Twitter, then I don't really know where to turn to, other than perhaps go into DeviantArt and spend years of your time getting comfy with the resident dino-nerds there, many of whom overlap with the Twitter-sphere (such as Alberta Claw and @Skeletaldrawing / Scott Hartman)
For dedicated textual information, just go to Wikipedia, really.
Back in the day there were massive platforms for dino information, databases etc, but those have dwindled away by now, and Wikipedia really remains the only place to go. Information there is reliable and up to date, for the very most time. Now and then there will be some overzealous statement, like, T. rex had feathers coming out its eyes, but these are typically swiftly moderated.
Dino-specific wikis (of which there are a handful) are complete garbage, pretty much all of the time. They're ran by kids or rabid aspies (cough), and are worth less than shit drenched toilet paper
