 * Symbol possible vote.svg Article prose (but not the actual article) was expanded fivefold, so give that a pass. Long now now too. But where is this list by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching? Hawkeye7 (talk) 05:59, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I didn't see this come up on my watchlist. There is no central Carnegie list (you have to jump around their website to put the content together). I will propose an alt hook that is more directly cited.  Ruby  2010/  2013  13:35, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
