5x expanded by Epicgenius (talk). Self-nominated at 17:29, 14 September 2021 (UTC).
- Nominator has expanded the article 5x since their first edit, and within the time frame, it is new enough and long enough (I love how your concept of "adding some stuff" is 60,000kb of content). After counting each letter by hand it is also longer than 1,500 characters. It's hard to be biassed towards a building but this article is nonetheless neutral, and is cited to excellent quality. Copyvio declares a 25% copyright violation, but basically, all come from both the article and sources saying "The Bank of America". Prefer Alt0 as it is most delicious, followed by Alt3. QPQ completed. Good Job! Panini!🥪 13:28, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
