Black-chinned siskin[edit]

5x expanded by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self-nominated at 17:50, 29 August 2015 (UTC).

  • The late nomination is excused by the fact that the article was part of an earlier on-time nomination, but split off from it because it did not fit well with the other nomination's hook. Expansion from 281 B to its nominated size of 1760 B exceeds 5x. The article is well written, properly sourced, and does not appear to contain any copied or closely paraphrased text. The hook details are specifically mentioned in the source, but per DYK rules needed to be added to the exact sentence of the article where they appear (even though it is obvious which source is intended since it's the only one for its paragraph). Since this is only a minor change, I went ahead and did that rather than asking for it to be done and waiting for another round of review. QPQ done. Looks good to go to me. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:01, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
