Histioteuthis reversa

edit

Reverse jewel squid

5x expanded by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self nominated at 19:56, 18 March 2014 (UTC).

  • Nice hook. Only one problem, the article has not been expanded five times or more. To complete the expansion, the article needs to become 9,975 bytes, almost five more than right now. Unless this is expanded, the article can not be accepted. Good luck. IJReid (talk) 15:58, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
  • I think you'll find that the prose size before I started was 345 B and it is now 2482 B which is a more than fivefold expansion. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:29, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
  • Could you recheck the article history? On my view-screen (a MacBook) the article history reads stating that at the edit previous to any of yours, the article was 1,995 bytes, being expanded by you to reach 5,627 bytes, less than a fivefold expansion. IJReid (talk) 20:07, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
  • Prose size has gone from 346 B to 2485 B – infoboxes, markup and categories do not count towards article size, only "readable prose" per WP:Did you know#Eligibility criteria. C679 20:15, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
  • Ah never mind. I new about that rule, but I did not know that was why it was expanded less than the criteria requires. Thanks. The Hook is good, the article is sufficiently expanded, and I need to recheck my math and numbers. IJReid (talk) 20:22, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
