[dinosaur] In Sci. Rep., only *Shishugounykus* is available

So I searched all their descriptions for "zoob", "lsid" and "urn:" until I found a hit.
 
The description of Shishugounykus has been registered:
 
"This published work and its nomenclatural acts have been registered in ZooBank which is a proposed online registration system for the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (IZCN). The LSID (Life science identifiers) for this publication is urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:B12FD816-4CEA-4681-A4B3-AE1E6639D969. The associated information can also be viewed through any standard web browser by appending the LSID to the prefix “http://zoobank.org/”. "
 
The descriptions of "Lingyuanosaurus", "Fukuivenator", "Savannasaurus", "Tongtianlong", "Corythoraptor", Daspletosaurus "horneri", "Isaberrysaura", "Mierasaurus", "Xingxiulong", "Anomalipes", "Jinyunpelta", "Yizhousaurus", "Bajadasaurus", "Xingtianosaurus", "Huanansaurus", "Mosaiceratops", "Pulanesaura", "Zhenyuanlong" and as mentioned "Yunyangosaurus" have not.
 
That's the entire rest of the list.
 
I am right now going to write a petition asking to retroactively (to 2012, when electronic publication was allowed at all) waive the requirement for registration for open-access publications, on the grounds that the description is in the first three Google hits for each of the "names" above (once I searched for "anomalipes dinosaur", because anomalipes exists as a species name) and that several of these names have been treated as valid in later papers, and then I'm going to submit it to the Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature.
 
Anyone who wants to join me as an author, please drop me an e-mail.
 
Feel free to offer help. In particular, "open-access publications" should perhaps be restricted to those that archive properly & stuff, perhaps those that comply with some existing open-access policy. I couldn't narrow this down in a minute of clicking on links or googling for "open-access policy", but I'm sure it can be done.
