Welcome to the wiki for all you need to know about dinosaurs, the fascinating ancient beasts which this wiki is about .To create a page, type in its name in the "Search Dinosaur Wiki" box, then click the "Search" button again if it says no such page exists, then click the red link if it has not already been created.

User access levels

Confused by all the names and crowns on signatures? Here is a guide to show you who's who, in roughly ascending order of power.

IP addresses: Non-logged in users. Cannot do some things normal users can, due to their reputation for vandalism


Users: Logged in users are identified by name, and can do some things IP addresses cannot do.


Rollbackcrown: Rollbacks are normal users entrusted with the rollback button. This allows them to revert vandalism with one click.


Sysopcrown: Sysops, or administartors can block other users (only in cases of vandalism, etc.) and delete pages, along with various other powers.


Bureaucratcrown: Bureaucrats have the power to turn other users into bureaucrats, sysops and rollbacks. They can also do everything a sysop can do.


Foundercrown: Founders are bureaucrats with special recognition for founding the wiki. Only 3 founders exist and they can be recognised by their golden crowns and the black background on their signatures.

Here are the 3 founders:

T-Rex 882 Gigantosaurus 001 Raptor 225
