Zendegi

(

• ... that science fiction author Greg Egan has been praised for taking Zendegi "into the street demos and sitting rooms of near-future Tehran"?

• Reviewed: Game Dev Story

• Article has not been expanded 5 times and it is still classed as a stub. S_peakF_ree ^(talk)_(contribs) 20:58, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

• Did you comment on the right template? I was just reading this article over to review it, and I was going to pass it as it is more than 5x expanded and, at over 8k characters, not a stub. It isn't even tagged as one. Two of the three wikiprojects listed it as a stub for some reason, but it clearly has been expanded beyond stub and start class. – Muboshgu (talk) 21:06, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

• I use DYKcheck. It was listed as a stub on the talk page for WikiProject Science Fiction and WikiProject Iran when I checked. DYKcheck said that the article had not been expanded 5 times. It does say now so then I see no problems passing it.S_peakF_ree ^(talk)_(contribs) 21:43, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

• Hmm, I was unaware of that tool. I'll check it out. – Muboshgu (talk) 23:51, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

• Hmmpf it now says "Article has not been created or expanded 5x within the past 10 days (14 days) DYKcheck does not account for previous versions with splits or copyright violations." As I read the rules an article should be expanded 5 fold in 5 days time. This diff shows that only a small error correction took place in that time (changing Greg Bear to Greg Egan, an obvious mistake). I guess one has to be wary when using tools.

• Zendegi was expanded 29 times (8558/292) here on February 17 and was nominated on Februaury 18 here, well within the required 5 days. It's been sitting in T:TDYK for 2 weeks and DYKcheck doesn't take into account when it was nominated. —Bruce1ee^talk 12:38, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

• Sorry, I overlooked that. I see no problems with it now. Good to go. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SpeakFree (talk • contribs) 18:50, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
