Mite

 * ... that relative to its size, one species of mite is the fastest animal on Earth? Source: "Mite sets new record as world's fastest land animal"
 * Reviewed: Code Blue (bull)

Improved to Good Article status by Chiswick Chap (talk) and Cwmhiraeth (talk). Nominated by Cwmhiraeth (talk) at 07:36, 27 November 2017 (UTC).


 * New(ly promoted to good article) enough, long enough, neutral enough. Doesn't seem to be any copyright violation. Hook is interesting, sourced (although I think it might be ideal if there was a ref to something other than a press release, namely the actual paper: ), clearly stated in article. (Although I wonder if it might be clearer to say something like "a species of mite"? "A mite" gives the impression that this applies to any ol' mite, I think. But this might just be me reading too much into it). QPQ has been done. Passed. Symbol confirmed.svg Umimmak (talk) 08:49, 27 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the review. I have added a reference to the paper and have adjusted the hook. Perhaps you could repeat your tick for clarity. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:41, 27 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Yes I approve even more so now, thank you. Umimmak (talk) 18:50, 27 November 2017 (UTC)
