Caveats of the Internet

Any time that one searches for anything discussing birds, dinosaurs, and/or evolution, one must be aware of the confusing and argumentative cyclone of websites that are out there. Looking up an animal like Protarchaeopteryx is a part of that rule and certainly not an exception. A safe place to start is something like the WizScience video below that just presents facts that we know about this dinosaur without adding conjecture or argument to what is presented.

Of course, we cannot assume that all of the videos and websites are as neutral as those put forth by a group like the team behind WizScience. That being said, there are websites that do avoid the arguments on the internet by presenting information (and being fairly regularly updated to maintain that information) without allowing comments; it really can be as scary as I am making this sound when a website discusses the dinosaur-bird transition and key fossils and allows for commenting. Pages that are safe include:
Encyclopedia Britannica
The Natural History Museum of London
Age of Dinosaurs
Dinosaur Jungle
Enchanted Learning
