... that Ed, Edd n Eddy's TV movie series finale, Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show, premiered on November 8, 2009, and achieved high ratings success for Cartoon Network?

Comment: A newly created article by me; the info in the hook is fully sourced in the article.

Although normally this would wait for the AfD to conclude, there is extensive overly close paraphrasing amounting to WP:COPYVIO in the Reception section. Further, although this article has gone through inclusion and deletion cycles, earlier versions of it, according to DYKcheck, were sufficiently large that this is not a 5x expansion of earlier attempts, which were also mostly Plot. Before the article was gutted prior to the first deletion in August 2009, it had 6556 prose characters, compared to the 7616 it has now. Even before the 2011 AfD resulted in a redirect, the article had 2445 characters. Given the many issues, I don't see how this can qualify for DYK. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:57, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

Followup: The AfD has closed as "keep", and the copyvio material has been excised. The article now has 6884 prose characters, so the expansion issue remains. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:42, 22 August 2012 (UTC)

In view of the deletion history of this page, I think it can be treated as having been "new" the day it was moved from Khanassin's user space to the main space. Earlier versions of the article that were deleted for blatant copyvio and/or for being created by a banned user should not count; it could be said that the versions that were deleted at AfD for lack of notability were pre-existing Wikipedia content, but that seems excessively legalistic. --Orlady (talk) 21:17, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, Orlady. As this counts as a new article after all, a full review is now needed. BlueMoonset (talk) 23:04, 30 August 2012 (UTC)
Length, date, and various aspects of this article check out, and this article was new enough at the time of its nomination to be eligible. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 04:08, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

Note: I have removed the image that accompanied this nomination, since it is not the one that appears in the article. By DYK rules, proposed images must appear in the article, so this image was ineligible. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:24, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
