2x expanded and sourced (BLP) by DaltonCastle (talk). Nominated by George Ho (talk) at 00:15, 15 November 2013 (UTC).
- Note: this is not eligible for the 2x BLP exception (it had refs prior to expansion), but that doesn't matter, as it does satisfy the normal 5x expansion rule. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 23:20, 15 November 2013 (UTC)
Recent 5x expansion. I notice that the article uses extensive direct quotes though, many of which are not followed by a citation. EricEnfermero HOWDY! 14:17, 16 November 2013 (UTC)
There has been no response from the nominator in over three weeks, the article has not been edited since the review and must still have the significant sourcing issues mentioned above, and George Ho has made over 500 edits on Wikipedia since the most recent ping on his talk page six days ago. I see no point in keeping this nomination open any longer. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:42, 8 December 2013 (UTC)
