  • @Peterpietri: Great work with this article. Unless I am mistaken, it appears that the expansion falls short of the requirement of 5x readable prose. Looks like it was about 5K on 22 November and is 17K today. Let me know if I am missing something. Also pending a QPQ review. Otherwise, article is cited to RS, neutral, well-written and hook is interesting and cited. —Al Ameer (talk) 16:42, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
  • Article was expanded 5x total, but beginning in October. Unfortunately, it has not been expanded enough recently to qualify, and now that it is the 29th, expanding it more now wouldn't help. This seems like a great candidate for WP:GA and I encourage the nominator to continue working on it and submit it there. Once it passes and is promoted to Good Article status, it can be renominated for DYK within seven days. Thanks for the hard work! Footlessmouse (talk) 23:17, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
  • Actually, Footlessmouse, if someone nominates on time—and the entire expansion began November 22, the date this was nominated, not in October, which were edits by someone else and not part of the current expansion—we allow them the opportunity to complete the expansion to 5x if they can do so in a reasonable period after being informed of the shortfall. In this case, the article was 5191 prose characters prior to expansion, which needs it has to expand fivefold to 25955 prose characters. At the moment, it's over halfway there, at 17172, so another 8783 prose characters will be needed. Peterpietri, do you think you'll be able to further expand the article by that much? Please let us know either way. Many thanks, and congratulations on the work you've put into the article. BlueMoonset (talk) 00:08, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
The nominator is a student editor who is editing as part of a course that ends on the 12th. In addition, they haven't edited since the day they nominated this. Given that there's still one week to go until the course ends and the article issues appear surmountable, I'm pinging the relevant course people (@Carwil, KellieCavagnaro, Ian (Wiki Ed), and Helaine (Wiki Ed):) to try and contact the student in the hopes that they may be able to return.

  • The nominator has been unable to return to Wikipedia and the course ends today. Marking for closure as an abandoned nomination. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 14:52, 12 December 2020 (UTC)
