5x expanded by Bloom6132 (talk). Self-nominated at 23:59, 27 May 2022 (UTC).[reply]

General eligibility:
New enough: - ~~On the 19 May this article was around 2244 characters. Right now the article is 6793 which means this falls short of the fivefold expansion rule.~~
Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: ~~Unfortunately, this does not meet the fivefold expansion guideline so I don't see a way this can meet the eligibility requirements without significant expansion.~~ Vladimir.copic (talk) 03:22, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong. The article on May 19 was in fact 928 characters (according to WP:DYKCHECK). That means 4,640 characters are required (already met). New review needed. —Bloom6132 (talk) 03:48, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Right you are. Sorry I don't use DYK check and manually calculate - which is very flawed. Final note: I don't like ALT0 - linking two unrelated incidents that occurred decades apart with the word "after". Preference would be for ALT2. Vladimir.copic (talk) 04:10, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
