 * 5x expansion article started with ~1100 words on 9 September 2013, and at the time of nomination on 14 September, had ~5075 words, falling only slightly under. The article has since been expanded to well over 6000 words, so I think it makes sense to pass it on the 5x criteria.  (Also, for some reason, prosesize.js is not working for me so my initial estimates may be off somewhat).  Length is certainly fine.  A spot check of sources show no signs of plagiarism or close paraphrasing.  As this article is about a business, the article is importantly, non-promotional in tone.  The hook is interesting and appropriately sourced.  Photos used in the article were obtained from Flickr and were released under an appropriate CC license.  I think the phrasing in ALT1 is fine, but here is another hook to consider:
 * ALT2: ... that the site for the UNESCO Asia Pacific Heritage Award-winning Khaplu Palace (pictured) was based on where a large rock ended up after being rolled down a cliff?
 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Will need a reviewer to check ALT2. I, JethroBT  drop me a line 19:56, 10 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg 5x expansion verified. New enough, long enough, no close paraphrasing seen. QPQ done. ALT2 is catchier and hook refs are verified. However, the source says "cliff," not "mountaintop," so I changed the article and the hook. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 23:32, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
