5x expanded by Bloom6132 (talk). Self-nominated at 00:07, 20 May 2022 (UTC).
The article is long enough at around 8300 characters. It was 5x expanded on May 20 and nominated promptly. The hook checks out. A QPQ has been done. Ready to go. --Moscow Connection (talk) 01:36, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
Given this WT:DYK discussion and the circumstances behind it, should the image slot request still be granted or not? Pinging all participants in that discussion: @SL93, Amakuru, Theleekycauldron, BlueMoonset, Maile66, and Valereee: as well as the original reviewer Moscow Connection.

- I think that's a better question for a promoter who does not fall under WP:INVOLVED or WP:NACINV. So your initial attempt to promote this nom into the non-image slot of another prep was improper and highly inappropriate. Especially since your comments at WT:DYK indicate you were intending to do this as a punitive measure (contravening the letter and spirit of DYKSG). —Bloom6132 (talk) 05:10, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- Promoted back to prep 3. There is absolutely no procedural reason why this had to held up further. The hook is ready to go, the request for an image slot has already been politely turned down by SL93, and there was no consensus at WT:DYK that that decision should somehow be overridden. Thanks for working on this article. — Amakuru (talk) 08:40, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
