• according to DYK check, this article hasn't been 5x expanded (well, other than since it was created in 2006). Is there something I'm missing Govvy. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:10, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
• @Lee Vilenski: I really just wanted to put it forward because I thought it be a fun DYK, alas, I didn't realise the DYK ran such a bias on recent content. Govvy (talk) 20:56, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

@Govvy: Per WP:DYKRULES, the article must be new enough, but I don't see how it was considerably expanded within the seven days preceding this nomination. Deltaspace⁴² (talk • contribs) 18:57, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
