[edit]If this draft were moved to article space, would it probably survive a listing at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion? Issues that do not affect the likelihood of success at AfD (e.g., halo effects like formatting) should not be considered when making this fundamental calculation. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:42, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
- I am not an expert at AfD, but what I will say is that your content would very likely survive, and your article would be more likely than not to survive. This is a topic which will continue to grow as we learn more, and you have already demonstrated to me that it meets WP:N and WP:V. The worst case scenario I can see would be that people feel this article should be merged with Mitochondrion. I personally do not think so, as that article is rather long as it is, and I think that your article stands fine by itself. However, it contains no mention (that I saw) of the topics covered in your article, and Horizontal gene transfer mentions mitochondria but does not link here. I think that editing those pages to include a little bit of the information you have here, and linking back here, might be in order. Further improvements here will make it even less likely to get AfD'd. Good luck, and good editing! Prometheus720 (talk) 15:07, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
- I'm a bit late to this discussion, but I agree with Prometheus720. This makes sense a separate article. It's a sufficiently notable topic, and sufficiently well sourced. It works well as a standalone article so long as there's a couple of sentences in the Mitochondria article to summarise it and link here. Additional possible improvements (ping Nikatomka):
- a diagram would be v useful (especially mechanisms)
- more wikilinks to other articles
- any information on prevalence or occurrence frequency in vivo

I've also done some minor formatting of the references. T.Shafee(Evo&Evo)talk 01:41, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
