Mitochondrial Eve[edit]

Article is no longer a featured article

From being a FA with only two support votes this has turned into somewhat of a brainfart. There are several problems with the article, it weasels its way around concepts that are as good as proven (we all have a more recent common ancestor than Eve), badly explains and possibly get wrong several important concepts (I have a degree in biology and I can't work out why a population bottleneck is implied or needed).

  • Remove. That said, I hope someone will fix the article b/c it could be a good one.--Alabamaboy 11:57, 28 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • cleanup, or revert to FA'd version. It could be saved with comparatively little effort by somebody who know's what they're doing. Failing that, remove, I'm afraid, see my comment on talk. dab (ᛏ) 06:52, 5 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Remove. I agree, there is something just not "feature article-ish" about it. And a stub section in a FA? Come on...--naryathegreat | (talk) 00:22, August 8, 2005 (UTC)
  • Cleanup It's on the verge of FA. Karmafist 04:14, 8 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
