5x expanded by The C of E (talk). Self-nominated at 14:07, 16 March 2020 (UTC).
Technically, this doesn't meet the 5x expansion criteria because a previous version of the page was around 1,500 characters long. However, as that content was removed in 2015, I'm happy to IAR this one; for all intents and purposes this is a new article with new content. The hook is engaging, and the information provided is appropriately cited inline. Spotchecks reveal no copyvio etc. Good to go. Harrias talk 09:11, 17 March 2020 (UTC)
- I will be honest @Harrias:, I hadn't even seen that when I went to expand it! lol. Thank you for the review, any preference on hook? The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 09:15, 17 March 2020 (UTC)
- I probably prefer the original, as it isn't that inconceivable that New York, New York has a blacksmith operating somewhere, so that is less of a HUH?! moment. Harrias talk 09:18, 17 March 2020 (UTC)
