  • Sadly, remove the many quotes, and I make it 878 bytes. also nb the image is non-free, which the bot detected. But no doubt more text can be added. Johnbod (talk) 03:14, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
Yes, they're fine, but excluded when counting the size. another 650 bytes needed. I'll ping QatarStarsLeague. Johnbod (talk) 14:23, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
  • @Johnbod: Didn't nominate it, so wasn't really thinking it was a great DYK: but is quotation really a disqualification? Its a necessary part of writing reception sections of articles about fiction, unless subsequent experts have summarized how it was received? And duh on the image, removed! Sadads (talk) 14:10, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
  • Image removed yes, but I have the same thoughts on quotations. Can't get around writing such a section without using them.QatarStarsLeague (talk) 16:35, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
  • @Johnbod: I expanded some more and took a closer look at the DYK Supplemenary rules for length and there is nothing to suggest anything but block quotes should be excluded: maybe one or two of the sentences should be excluded by not nearly half of the text-- that makes no sense, especially when I have been very judicious about the quotations, Sadads (talk) 00:43, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
Well that is my understanding of how they work. For the 3rd time, the problem is not that the quotes are there, but that not enough else was. But we are now comfortably over the limit, so
  • Hook fact checks out too. Johnbod (talk) 00:58, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
