5x expanded by ECAR314 (talk). Self-nominated at 02:05, 28 October 2022 (UTC).

• Hi ECAR314, thanks for nominating this article but it is not currently eligible for DYK as the expansion in text length (measured from this pre-existing revision) is not sufficient. I measure it as just over doubling in length while the rules require a 5x expansion. I don't think it is feasible for the article to reach the required length. A more achievable route to DYK appearance might be to improve it to Wikipedia:Good article standard, once this is achieved it also grants DYK eligibility - Dumelow (talk) 08:24, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
• @ECAR314: If you nominate this page for GA, I'll review it. See Wikipedia:Good article nominations/Instructions. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 07:47, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
