5x expanded by Longhornsg (talk). Self-nominated at 21:56, 10 April 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Fred Bild; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
A fine expansion, easily 1K of prose more than required. The hook is interesting and something I wouldn't have guessed at all. I had one small close paraphrasing concern which I've resolved myself, and the citations to Adrienne Clarkson's book could do with specific page numbers, to make spot checking easier.

- Thanks, @Ritchie333:! Added page numbers for the Clarkson book, based on the online version. Let me know if that works.
In that case, we are good to do. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 19:25, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
