• Not a 5x expansion. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:35, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

Technically, it's not far off, but either way it's a few hundred off 1,500 characters and very stubby. I say give @Hmsuth4770: a chance.--Launchballer 22:41, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

• Ian (Wiki Ed), this actually almost a 5x expansion: 235 prose characters prior to the recent edits, and 1102 at present (5x would be 1175). However, it fails to meet the 1500 prose character minimum required of every article nominated for DYK. When nominators come up short—mainly because they're not counting prose characters, which DYK check can count for you—we typically allow them to expand the nominated article, if they can do so in a timely manner.

• BlueMoonset Thanks for double-checking. I always just assume Shubinator's tool is correct on the expansion. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 14:56, 7 November 2024 (UTC)

• I've emailed them, because students don't always check messages all that often. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:00, 7 November 2024 (UTC)
