"Closely related"

I don't see how perchlorate is that similar to tetrafluoroborate, the are both anions with a charge of -1 and contain halogen atoms, but after that the similarities end, does anyone have any reason to keep that phrase? I'm going to get rid of it as extraneous and undersupported. Sbcloatitr (talk) 04:10, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind, continued reading the article and it becomes clearer later. But I'll still edit for clarity Sbcloatitr (talk) 04:12, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Here is a copy of some erroneous entries I removed from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrafluoroberyllate, which may be worthy of inclusion in this article. 51.146.66.5 (talk) 19:58, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
