GA Review
The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.''

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria Nicely written article on an interesting topic. It is quite long, leaving little room for expansion. This may be borderline allowed under LENGTH, so I won't hold up GA status over that. But a future split may be appropriate. (A possibility is splitting off the multi-cellular evolution section, as that occupies about half the content.)

Fixed all the ref format issues I could see. Except that Cavosie et al (2005) still ends "and E.I.M.F." becuase that's what the target of the doi link says. The only citation of this that I could find omits "and E.I.M.F." - but adds it in an another cite of the same authors published 2007. --Philcha (talk) 09:12, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
 * The page looks good. Thank you for addressing my concerns. I'm going to promote it to GA.&mdash;RJH (talk) 17:52, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi, RJH, thanks for your help, it's been a fun review. Thanks also to Tim Vickers for helping to smooth off some of the rough edges. --Philcha (talk) 18:28, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
