Suggest italicizing case name and not wikilinking court name, and rephrasing like so:

Article has undergone commendable improvements recently, but has not increased 5x in size.

5095 characters of readable prose on September 15
14612 characters now, less than 3x the size a month and a half ago.

I would add that although the new details are good, the lede has become more opaque since Yushan's original edit; it would be good to make the effects of the decision more prominent in the first paragraph. Peace, groupuscule (talk) 22:39, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
