 * Symbol possible vote.svg If you strictly apply the DYK rules, this nomination fails because it was made on December 1st and the 5x expansion started on November 23rd. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:17, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, I know, but many similar exceptions have been made in the past and with DYK so backed up I saw no need to hurry.--Wehwalt (talk) 12:19, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
 * And I was past the 5x mark within the time, but I was completing and polishing.--Wehwalt (talk) 12:19, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg A substantial and interesting article. 5x expansion, date, image and hook are all fine. The duplicate detector does not bring up anything that is concerning. Despite being submitted slightly late, I think this is a worthwhile article for inclusion in DYK. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:20, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you, I appreciate the flexibility.--Wehwalt (talk) 18:24, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
