Articles to Look Into

Bungartius (Sword-mouth placoderm) - Just isn't much info beyond the original skull description
Cimolichthys (more info)
Climatius (better sources)
Dollocaris (More info?)
Entelognathus (far more important than its article would indicate) - Will definitely take some work.
Gyrosteus (giant sturgeon, organizing)
Harpagofututor (says "led to more information" but doesn't describe it)
Orodus (so unusual, yet only has a single sentence) - I know why now, Orodus is the worst wastebasket taxon known to man, there's 32 species in the genus.
Saurodon (big fish, ecology?)
Scaumenacia (big-finned lungfish, needs references)
Siberion (Interesting history unmentioned)
Saivodus (exceptionally large ctenacanth)
Strongylosteus (same as Gyrosteus)
Tegeolepis (shark-like Devonian fish)
Thrinacodus (eel-shark)
Pachyrhizodus (paleoecology?)
Xenusion (Cambrian weirdo, formatting)
