Improved to Good Article status by Atsme (talk). Self nominated at 19:40, 11 July 2014 (UTC).
- NOT a review, but the hook is too long. How about:

Interesting article, but none of the supplied sources appear to use the term "living fossil". Gatoclass (talk) 12:41, 13 July 2014 (UTC)

GA'd recently enough. No copyvio or plagiarism detected. No close-paraphrasing except where unavoidable or attributed in-line. Citations where citations should be. Hook cited. Neutral. QPQ not required (I think). ALT struck as original hook was amended. Picture is indistinct at this size but that's never stopped a prep-builder picking one in the past. (Some cracking easter egg links redirected to the correct destinations and an error pointed out on the talk page.) Belle (talk) 09:56, 18 July 2014 (UTC)
