• The nomination text was erroneously placed directly on the main nomination page rather than on a subpage, so I moved it to a subpage. Then I looked at the article's history to determine the correct date to transclude it on the nomination page, and I discovered that it has not been recently expanded at all. As the article has 17,261 prose characters, it's exceedingly unlikely that it will ever be 5x expanded. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 07:59, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
