  • Great looking article, no problems with policy seen. Images are good to go and references are good. It looks like the article, at 7067 charactersm is about 700 characters short of a 5x expansion from the October 10th length of 1559 characters.--Kevmin § 07:51, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
  • Okay, I've managed to add another 1300 characters to the article. All of it is admittedly padding. There is literally nothing more to add to the article. It may have even made the prose quality worse, but it's the rules, I guess. Done.-- OBSIDIANSOUL 10:22, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
  • Good to go at this point.--Kevmin § 18:23, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
