- Very interesting article and hook, but two issues I've spotted. First (and maybe a little pernickety) is that the article doesn't say that Tempera is the first double acting ship – only that Fortum ordered two in 2001, the first of which was Tempera. The source does state this, however – as does Double acting ship. The major issue is that the prose hasn't been expanded 5x. If expansion started with this edit (2,342 chars), the current version (6,643 chars) is 5,067 chars short. matt (talk) 19:08, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
- I knew that I had forgotten something! While I knew that you could nominate articles that had been expanded recently, I totally forgot the minimum length. Sorry about that! Tupsumato (talk) 20:17, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
- No probs... I'm sure there's 5,067 characters of information that you can get in to the article! It would be a shame not to have this hook. matt (talk) 20:19, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
- Well, I'll see if I can find enough about the ship's career etc. Tupsumato (talk) 20:21, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
- I expanded the article somewhat, but I'm not sure if it is long enough and if the quality is good enough to qualify for DYK criteria. Tupsumato (talk) 01:17, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
My check of the length says it is. Hook fact is now cited. Tick based on previous review. Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:52, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
