Portuguese settlement in Chittagong

 * ... that the Portuguese settlement in Chittagong flourished for 138 years between the 16th and 17th centuries?



5x expanded by 114.134.89.21 (talk) and Vanished user kjn lsr35kjhwertsek4 (talk). Nominated by Arr4 (talk) at 17:51, 16 June 2015 (UTC).


 * Symbol question.svg Date and size are fine. The hook is neutral and fine. I added some citation needed templates, there are some end-of-para unreferenced sentences. Copyvio spotcheck passed. Book citations need page numbers and should be reformatted (I recommend one click Citoid, works best in visual editor). Ref 7 is bare URL. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 06:52, 17 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I've added a few more citations. Reflinks is currently down, and I don't have citoid installed. Can I have help in converting the references?--114.134.89.21 (talk) 23:50, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately 114.134.89.21(Bazaan) has been blocked again for sock-puppetry and he/she will not be able to update the article at this moment. So, I have provided full citations with page number as per request from Piotrus. Also referenced the hook in the article. Please someone re-review the DYK. Thanks - Arr4 (talk) 05:11, 21 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Almost ready, just one para missing citations . My cite requests there were removed by an anon? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 03:01, 22 June 2015 (UTC)
 * I have added citations by replacing the cn tags you added. Also proposing a new hook as I can not find any reference which says Portuguese ruled Chittagong for exactly 138 years (suggested by the anon IP/Bazaan sock) at my talk page - Arr4 (talk) 16:25, 22 June 2015 (UTC)
 * ALT1 ... that the Portuguese settlement in Chittagong flourished for more than 130 years between the 16th and 17th centuries?
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Now GTG. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 01:24, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the review. - Arr4 (talk) 15:22, 23 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Symbol possible vote.svg I have pulled this from prep 1 because it appears to be no more than a x2 expansion when the rules specify that an article must be expanded x5 to be eligible. Gatoclass (talk) 07:49, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Specifically, the article was 1612 prose characters prior to expansion, and it is currently 4320 prose characters. It would need to be 8060 prose characters to qualify as a 5x expansion. So far, 2708 characters have been added; another 3740 are needed, which is quite a high bar. BlueMoonset (talk) 01:11, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
 * , I have expanded the article diff. Can you tell me is it acceptable now? Or I have to expand it more? - Arr4 (talk) 19:25, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Arr4, the article's up to 5409 prose characters—you added 1089 prose characters in all. The article still need to get to 8060, another 2651 to go. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:14, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
 * , I have further expanded the article. My count says around 8300 character. Can you check and re-review the article please? - Arr4 (talk) 20:15, 12 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Almost there, Arr4. According to DYKcheck, which is the gold standard for DYK, you're at 7955 prose characters, so the article needs only a minimum of another 105 prose characters to attain 8060 and a 5x expansion. Great work! BlueMoonset (talk) 02:55, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
 * , Added more 230 characters. - Arr4 (talk) 06:54, 13 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Article now meets 5x expansion requirement. New full review needed, since the article has nearly doubled in size (another 3880 prose characters), and all that new material needs to be checked. Thanks! BlueMoonset (talk) 21:36, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg As detailed above long enough; new enough, hook short enough and sourced. I detected no neutrality or copyright problems, and those image would surely be in the public domain by now., you need to do a QPQ for this nomination.-- Laun  chba  ller  00:08, 30 July 2015 (UTC)
 * @Launchballer Arr4 has made fewer than five DYK nominations, therefore QPQ is unnecessary here. 42.0.5.197 (talk) 15:09, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Have you been through the archives of his talk page? I count that this is his sixth.-- Laun  chba  ller  16:42, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I have four DYK credits. I nominated a total of 5 DYKs but four of them have been accepted, one was rejected. I knew that user with less than 5 DYK credits needs not to do do QPQ. - Arr4 (talk) 19:34, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
 * For what it's worth, my count was four previous DYK credits, going back through the talk page and its archives. This would be the last freebie. BlueMoonset (talk) 01:13, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Oops, I checked the talk page again and it is indeed four. My figure of five was calculated by counting the headers. Good to go.-- Laun  chba  ller  09:43, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
