Scope	Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope: Undulose extinction
Used in	Global usage
Reason	It's showing really well mechanism of undulose extinction in thin section under microscope which is sometimes hard to explain with static image or via words. -- Chmee2 (talk)
Review (criteria)	Support The other editors of the eight articles on six projects to which it has been added have retained it as a good addition to those articles. I agree that it illustrates the subject better than a static image. It is good to see a nomination of an animation here. I think it may be improved without the scale bar since scale can be indicated in the description. Also, keeping the center of rotation in one place may improve the illustration. However, VIC says "A VI is the best available image of its type on Commons, not the best that can be conceived of".
