? According to the
DYKcheck tool, the article isn't quite 5x expanded:
old version was 398 characters, and
current version is 1909 characters, which is short of the 1990 characters needed for a 5x expansion. Please can you add a bit more text, so that's it's at least 1990 characters long? Once that's fixed, and QPQ is done, will do a full review.
