Just wondering - why does it say that Silurian's red thingy in the forehead is an eye? For me it's more like an augmentation of sorts, they're technologically advanced after all...– The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.73.22.123 (talk).

Because they call it an eye, so it must be an eye. -<Azes13 ☎ 13:27, August 8, 2012 (UTC)

Oh, do they? OK, won't interfere then.)

Citation needed

The {{fact}} present in the lead demands a source for what I assume is the co-existence of Silurians and Sea Devils. However, were I to put Warriors of the Deep, this would immediately appear to be the source for all those alternative names, when it isn't. Are we to simply put all the necessary sources in the lead? I think this would be best, but perhaps in groups so an not to disrupt the flow. I know it's not convention to source leads, but I certainly think it should be. Hopefully someone can see through all the superflous text here, as I appear to have hidden my own question.--Skittles the hog - talk 22:08, September 14, 2012 (UTC)

I think the citation is required for the fact that the Silurians are from the Silurian period, which is contradicted by most of the other sources and mentioned in the Behind the Scenes section. I'm just going to remove that bit.-<Azes13 ☎ 03:49, September 15, 2012 (UTC)

Sorry if that wasn't clear. The Fact tag I added was for the "lived during the Silurian" rather than "co-existed with Sea Devils". -- Tybort (talk page) 10:21, September 15, 2012 (UTC)
