GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   "Writer Chris Chibnall was contacted by executive producers Steven Moffat and Piers Wenger about writing a two-part Doctor Who episode about Silurians and a drill." Too many abouts for my taste

1. Critical reception doesn't seem to be that mixed. I'd go more with moderately positive, as Fuller is the only one who had anything that negative to say.

I changed it to "positive to mixed". Actually, Fuller is the moore negative review; Wales was mixed, and Martin was so-so (he later said it was disappointing. Glimmer721 ^talk 23:14, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   Just want to check, what makes "Doctor Who News Page" a reliable source?

It's been accepted it most GAs and the few FA Doctor Who episode pages and has been cited by other sources such as io9 and SFX. I only use it when necessary, though. It's boarderline. This is the only AI figure reported in a more reliable source for this series, and it lists the Doctor Who News Page as its source! Glimmer721 ^talk 23:14, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

2. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

3. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

4. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

5. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

   Any pictures for the production section? Doesn't really matter, but I like pictures. ;)

I've looked, but there's nothing for Chibnall and the Plantasia picture doesn't show the plants which is the whole point...I suppose I could use a picture of Darvill, but that would just repeat the caption used in the infobox. Glimmer721 ^talk 23:14, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

2. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

This is a really well-written article. Just a couple minor issues, but nothing bad. Putting on hold for 7 days.--Gen. Quon (talk) 18:18, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
