Maynard (broadcaster)

[edit]

Flying Maynard

  • ... that Australian entertainer Maynard (pictured) made a career out of being "happily unfashionable", sometimes wearing "a stylish combination of pyjamas and floral beach wear"?

2x expanded and sourced (BLP) by Gronk Oz (talk). Self nominated at 08:38, 27 July 2014 (UTC).

  • Note to reviewer: The article before the expansion did have some refs, so it has to qualify under the 5x expansion rule. Yoninah (talk) 22:51, 5 August 2014 (UTC)
  • According to PageSize, the "readable prose size" before was 436 B, and after it was 7975 B (a little over 18x). --Gronk Oz (talk) 23:20, 5 August 2014 (UTC)
  • Article easily qualifies as 5x expanded; full review needed. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:42, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
  • This article is a five-fold expansion and is new enough and plenty long enough. The original hook is well sourced and goes well with the suitably-licensed image, so I have struck the other two, which are less well referenced anyway. QPQ has been done and I did not observe any policy issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:31, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
