KidAd, it's been about 12 days since the article was edited. It's still 1236 characters; can you expand the article by another 264 prose characters? If it's not done within a few days, this nomination will have to be failed. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 23:02, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The article hasn't been edited since May 25. Sorry, KidAd, but it doesn't meet the minimum size requirement. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 17:36, 10 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Mandarax, no worries. KidAd • SPEAK 17:39, 10 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
