Comment - QPQ done, however, there's a few issues with the hook. I assume the source is this book. As far as I can tell the source doesn't mention arms; is that a generalisation, or are they commonly referred to as arms? The general reader would have no idea what a crinoid is. Might I suggest that this word is wikilinked? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 15:22, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
  • @Lee Vilenski: I have wikilinked crinoid in the hook. The book source mentions the arms in the second sentence under the heading "Family Aporometridae" on page 214 on the right, and the arms and pinnules of this species are nicely illustrated below. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:20, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
