Acts of Sharbel

[edit]
  • ... that the Acts of Sharbel setting takes place at Edessa during the fifteenth year of Trajan's reign but is dated by biblical academics to the 5th century AD?

Created/expanded by JudeccaXIII (talk). Self-nominated at 23:51, 30 July 2016 (UTC).

  • @JudeccaXIII: Article created on 15 June so it doesn't meet the newness criteria. Taking expansion as starting from 28 July, it still falls short of the 5x expansion. However as its still less than a week from then, I'll give you that time to make the required expansion needed. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 07:34, 31 July 2016 (UTC)
The C of E God Save the Queen! I have expanded the article, but I don't know if it meets the 5x expansion requirement. I'm also limited to the amount of sources and there isn't much of them, so the article still might not meet the 5x expansion despite all the effort via insufficient sources. — JudeccaXIII (talk) 04:46, 1 August 2016 (UTC)
  • The article had 1717 prose characters prior to expansion; it has 3492 prose characters now, basically a 2x expansion. 5x would be 8585 prose characters; an additional 5093 characters of prose may not be feasible. One possibility is to eventually bring the article to GA status, at which point it would be eligible for DYK if nominated within seven days. JudeccaXIII, please let us know whether you think 8585 is attainable; if not, we'll have to close the nomination. Thanks for submitting the article. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:57, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
  • BlueMoonset I don't think I'll be able to have this article meet the requirements. Go ahead and close this nom. — JudeccaXIII (talk) 19:20, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
