Twenty longest FAs
[edit]Prompted by a recent comment that most of the largest FAs have expanded since they were promoted I thought it might be helpful to have some data. The following table shows how the top 20 longest FAs as of 23 December 2010 as listed on User:Dr pda/Featured article statistics have changed in since their promotion. Dr pda's prose size tool was used to measure the articles. Nev1 (talk) 20:38, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
