5x expanded by New9374 (talk). Self-nominated at 02:13, 11 June 2016 (UTC).
Congratulations on your first DYK nom, you've done a great job on this article and I hope it's the first of many DYKs for you. The article is a big improvement on how it was a week ago, but you haven't quite met the 5x expansion in prose requirement. You're very close though – you've taken it from 473 characters to 2287, so you only need to add another sentence to get there.
- Beyond that, the article is well written, and contains no WP:COPYVIO as far as I can see. Inline citations are included, and the hook is referenced. The hook is a little bit wordy, coming in a smidge under the maximum character count of 200, but I prefer it to ALT1 because it gives a bit more context. QPQ is not necessary as editor has no previous DYKs. — Gasheadsteve Talk to me 11:33, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for your praise and encouragement Gasheadsteve. I have added another sentence so it should meet the 5x expansion requirement now. I can't think of a shorter way to word the hook. Thanks. New9374 (talk) 13:49, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
