Celebrity chef
[edit]- ... that a campaign by celebrity chef Jamie Oliver (pictured) resulted in an increase in standards for school children's dinners in the UK?

- Comment: Article is far more than a 5x expansion of the previous article, but there was a 1600 character+ article back in 2009 which was basically a bullet pointed list of chefs which will throw off the automated DYK check.

Article seems fine to me (could maybe do with an aside explaining Michelin stars a bit). Not really keen on the Twitter comments being directly mentioned as such, though—the supporting ref is an appropriate one, being a reliable source (inasmuch as you trust the Telegraph but that's neither here nor there), so perhaps just phrasing that sentence as "In 2011, Australian chef Darren Simpson created a range of burgers for fast food giant Kentucky Fried Chicken, leading to comments calling him a "complete and utter sell-out" and a "laughing stock". Otherwise I think this one seems good to go. As for expansion, I had thought that prose characters didn't actually count bullets so I don't know if that old revision would even be as problematic as you point out. I'm happy with the expansion from the state you began in, though. GRAPPLE X 19:50, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
