List of awards and honours received by Angela Merkel

5x expanded by Hey man im josh (talk) and Actualcpscm (talk). Nominated by Hey man im josh (talk) at 17:10, 24 August 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/List of awards and honours received by Angela Merkel; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: None required.

Overall: @Hey man im josh: Both hooks look pretty interesting, although the source you provided for ALT1 does not mention Forbes explicitly, so that might be a slight issue. I confirm QPQ is not needed in this case. I've seen that you and Actualcpscm improved the article a lot in the last two days, but I'm a bit confused about the 5x expansion criteria: according to the revision history, the count went from just over 25,500 bytes (two days ago) to almost 64,000 bytes (currently)... Did you refer to the prose size, or to the entire page? Oltrepier (talk) 20:20, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for reviewing my nomination Oltrepier. I used prose. The DYK check tool assessed that the prose was expanded by at least 5x. Hey man im josh (talk) 20:42, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
Yes, DYK uses prose size, which means that things such as tables are not counted. Prior to expansion, the article contained a single 99-character line of prose. The prose size is now 1662 characters, so the five times expansion criterion has been fulfilled. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 20:56, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
Oltrepier: I went looking for a better source for the ALT1 hook and discovered that Merkel had actually been named the world's most powerful woman 14 times, not 13. I've added two sources and updated the ALT1 hook to reflect this. Hey man im josh (talk) 21:50, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
@Hey man im josh and Mandarax: Perfect, thank you so much for clarifying it! Well done on improving sources for ALT1, too. Both hooks should be good to go now. Oltrepier (talk) 09:14, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
