For an unknown reason, Wizardman deleted this page. Maybe it was just impatience...

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

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
Good prose; no complaints
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
References reliable; formating is consistent and follows the guidelines
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
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):
Infobox screenshot image is non-free but it follows the non-free file criteria, and its FUR is complete and does not violate the mentioned criteria. Second file is in public domain. Captions are good
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
I see no issues with this article. I did not like how it was removed without discussion (maybe the nominator proposed it, I don't know). I was busy in the last days, so forgive my delay. Good work as usual! :)--♫GoP♫_T ^C _N 14:15, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to mention this about three months late, but I just want you to know that it wasn't me. :P --Gen. Quon (talk) 21:55, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sometimes nominations that have been inactive are deleted so that the article appears in the queue as unreviewed again, checking the page logs might show who deleted it. 22:03, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

Requested move 13 September 2016

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Moved and The Sixth Extinction becomes WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT to The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History. Incoming links will need sorting first though. — Amakuru (talk) 22:21, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Sixth Extinction → The Sixth Extinction (The X-Files) – "The Sixth Extinction" should redirect to Sixth extinction (disambiguation). The article The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History has five times more daily visitors than The Sixth Extinction (The X-Files). 128.178.189.47 (talk) 13:06, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I'd be more open to the move if The Sixth Extinction then pointed to the book, which was then hatnoted. If it's substantially more viewed then it surely qualifies as the primary subject, rather than routing a specific name (with "the" and title casing) to a generic disambig.

Comment, per Grapple X, the book seems the primary. Randy Kryn 17:04, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
