Mikhail Youzhny
[edit]
- ... that Russian tennis player Mikhail Youzhny (pictured) is one of the few active tennis players to have reached the quarterfinals in all four grand slams?

Not near 5x expansion of readable prose, even before the long quotes are correctly blockquoted. Nikkimaria (talk) 02:52, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
- Note: DYKcheck gives the number of prose characters before expansion as 14,091, which would mean an expansion to 70,455 prose characters. The article currently has 40,674 prose characters, below a 3x expansion. More new would need to be added than already has been; it wouldn't be feasible to add nearly 30K more on top of the 26.5K that has been.
- By the way, I'm completely puzzled as to how that very odd DYKmake template was created, which has absolutely nothing to do with this article. I corrected it in the prep area while this was briefly promoted there, but it isn't a valid template as it stands. If I thought this nomination had any chance of being expanded sufficiently, I'd correct it, but it's such a curiosity I'm going to leave it as is. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:16, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
