• Unless I am missing something, the article isn't eligible: it's being nominated here as moved to mainspace, but was created in 2005. It doesn't seem to have been expanded by 5x recently and isn't a GA. @Chri Ye: is there some other reason why this meets the DYK criteria? UndercoverClassicist ^T·C 19:57, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

What this is is a roughly 2.7x expansion, which admittedly is very good but not quite what we're looking for. This would need another 8532 characters if I can add up.--Launchballer 08:55, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
