Comment: New page, but a five times expansion of Andrew Freedman#Andrew Freedman Home.

ALT1 ... that the Andrew Freedman Home (pictured), formerly a retirement home for wealthy individuals who had lost their money, is now a day care center and event space?

Andrew Freedman#Andrew Freedman Home is 660 characters long. The whole new article is 3152 characters long. A fivefold expansion would require at least 3300 characters. Besides, references should not be just raw links, you may use {{Cite web}} to fix them. Cambalachero (talk) 12:46, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

I expanded the lead to more fully describe the contents of the article, and that puts it over 3300 characters. Citation templates are not required for DYK, but I do agree that they are preferable, so I've converted the references accordingly. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:59, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

article is now 3311 characters, references have been cleaned up and the article is well referenced through-out, time is ok and hook is sourced to this article: "He left most of his fortune for the establishment of a home for aged and indigent persons of both sexes, but with the proviso that the residents of the home be poor people who had once been in good circumstances" -- Esemono (talk) 06:26, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
