Khyri Thornton

 * ... that Green Bay Packers rookie defensive lineman Khyri Thornton was so big that he had to cut a slit in his shirt to get it over his head?
 * Reviewed: Barbara Rubin
 * Comment: Of all the articles I've written for DYK, this might have been the most challenging expansion.

2x expanded and sourced (BLP) by Church (talk). Self nominated at 02:54, 28 October 2014 (UTC).


 * Symbol question.svg Expanded almost 6x in the last week, so well over the doubling-up required for BLPs. No copyvios detected, sources are pretty much fine. There's some weird capitalisation going on in the "Scouting" section which I'd like to see fixed, and there are incorrect date parameters in two sources (including the one for the hook) but otherwise there are no flagrant MOS or policy violations. Hook is interesting, short enough and sourced; no BLP issues. QPQ's done (and yes, it was too late an entry), no images. Fix the crazy caps and the reference parameters, and it's a goer.

 * Note: it's good that it's over the normal 5x expansion, because this would not be eligible for the 2x BLP exception, which requires that the pre-expansion version have no sources of any kind. This had inline references as well as other sources. M AN d ARAX  •  XAЯA b ИA M  08:46, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Went through and did a copyedit and fixed the refs. How're we looking now?-- Church  Talk 20:12, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Like a successful DYK. Nice work bulking out the already-apparently-quite-bulky Mr Thornton. Yunshui 雲 水 08:14, 29 October 2014 (UTC)
