• Insufficient recent expansion. Article has seen less than a 3x expansion (from 1955 characters of readable prose in the version of the article on March 9, 2011 to 5687 characters). DYK rules require at least a 5x expansion. --Allen3 ^talk 13:00, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

• It's not an expansion; it's a new article. It was in my sandbox in March 2011, not in the mainspace. (It was not a sandbox expansion of an existing article either - I created this article in my sandbox.) LadyofShalott 15:01, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

• Sorry for missing the move in the article history. Everything else looks good. Original hook and ALT1 confirmed. AGF of ALT2 which is referenced to an offline source. --Allen3 ^talk 17:31, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
