As far as I know it is just a theorie that Thaumaptilon could be a sea pen. Antcliffe & Brasier (2007) say that sea pens have "no undisputed fossil record until the Jurassic". --Jadeginkgo (talk) 17:13, 6 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia is not a manual, guidebook, textbook, or scientific journal. "A Wikipedia article should not be presented on the assumption that the reader is well-versed in the topic's field. Introductory language in the lead (and sometimes the initial sections) of the article should be written in plain terms and concepts that can be understood by any literate reader of Wikipedia without any knowledge in the given field before advancing to more detailed explanations of the topic. While wikilinks should be provided for advanced terms and concepts in that field, articles should be written on the assumption that the reader will not or cannot follow these links, instead attempting to infer their meaning from the text.
