The article was uncategorized, so I changed that. I put it in categories of two different phyla becausein the article it's stated Halkieria was a mollusc while on the brachiopod article it's also considered a possible ancestor. ExuTrancaRede 19:47, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Less direct / immediately usable:
At present Halkieriid redirects to Halkieria, which was fair enough when H. evangelista was the only well-studied species. However Porter, S.M. (May 2004). "Halkieriids in Middle Cambrian Phosphatic Limestones from Australia". Journal of Paleontology. 78 (3): 574–590. doi: 10.1666/0022-3360(2004)078<0574:HIMCPL>2.0.CO;2. Retrieved 2008-08-01. reports 1 new genus plus 2 other unclassified species from Mid-Cambrian rocks of the Georgina Basin in Australia. I suggest we make Halkieriid a separate article and move as much content as possible to it – even if we find that Halkieria should then redirects to Halkieriid. -- Philcha ( talk) 15:39, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
Good work on this article! I'm not familiar with the subject at all, but nothing strikes me as particularly untoward. One thing that doesn't sit too comfortably is your description of cladogram stability - you say "it falls apart if the organisms' characteristics are changed even slightly"; the lay reader may not understand how characters of a fossil organism can be changed. Perhaps "interpreted differently" or "the range of characters used is modified" would give a better reflection of the nature of the uncertainty.
It would be nice to get an expert opinion on the article, although I suspect it might be difficult to find one - perhaps a peer review would be helpful. I am guessing you are still working out the best place to locate the cladistic discussion, although I think there's a decent case for including the current discussion as is in this article. As ever, a GA reviewer could probably pick up on a couple of stylistic points, but otherwise it's looking like a pretty good job - I think you're ready to start on the lead!

Where does the name 'halkieriid' come from? Is it in honor of someone named "Halkier", or...? DS ( talk) 00:21, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
