Then if you call Silurians Homo Reptilia, then why not call Sea Devils Homo Anphibia. --Catkind121 15:30, July 13, 2010 (UTC) | Then if you call Silurians Homo Reptilia, then why not call Sea Devils Homo Anphibia. --Catkind121 15:30, July 13, 2010 (UTC) | ||
:::I disagree with any decision that would separate BBC Wales Silurians from BBC Silurians. In no way is this a "Mondasian/Pete's World Cyber-split" situation. These are just different tribes of the same race. Since we don't know the name of this tribe, we don't have a basis for starting a new article about them, in the way the Wikipedia have separate Cherokee and Sioux pages. The only thing canon allows us to do is to leave them all on one page. What you ''call'' that page is a separate matter. I think the MOS says to go with the most recent name first, which would make '''Homo reptilia''' preferred over Silurian. So the lead would run something like, '''Homo repitilia''', sometimes referred to as '''Silurians''' . . ." Frankly, though, I don't mind ignoring the MOS and going for the more common name, which is Silurian, and inverting the name order there.
