5x expanded by Kosack (talk). Self-nominated at 13:08, 3 March 2018 (UTC).


 * Symbol voting keep.svg Hi Kosack, review follows; article expanded more than 5x on 2-3 March; article is fully referenced with in-line citations throughout; no copyvios detected from sources listed; hook is interesting and cited, it is a subscription-only source but happy to AGF that it backs this up (the article title certainly nods in the right direction); QPQ has been done - Dumelow (talk) 09:59, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * This is not a 5x expansion. Before expansion began, on November 9, 2017, the character count was 1015. Today the character count is just over 4100. However, the pre-expansion version was completely unsourced, with only an external links section, so I will IAR this as a 2xBLP. I have a subscription to the hook cite and can confirm that it's accurate. Yoninah (talk) 23:19, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
