Expansion not sufficient (3x, not 5x)

Zoloti Vorota (Kiev Metro)

 * ... that the Zoloti Vorota station (central hall pictured) of the Kiev Metro system was designed to imitate an ancient orthodox temple?

 * Symbol confirmed.svg Sources look good, no copyvios, no problems I can tell. Nicely done. -  Neutralhomer  •  Talk  • 06:51, 11 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Symbol question.svgle created  by Kuban kazak on November 7, 2006 and was 2064 characters (0 words) "readable prose size  on Feb 7, 2014
 * Expanded on April 7, 2014 to 6469 characters (0 words) "readable prose size".
 * 2064 X 5 = 10,320, so this does not yet qualify as a 5X expansion. Do you think you can expand it to that?
 * Sources are in Russian and Ukanian, so that is either Good Faith on sourcing and copyvio/close paraphrasing, or someone might be able to read those languages.
 * No QPQ is necessary, as creator only has one other DYK on record.
 * It is indeed a beautiful article, with really good images that would look good on the main page. Just needs more expansion.  — Maile  (talk) 00:13, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, that's all that it can be expanded to... I tried to stretch it out as much as possible, but that's as far as it will go. Just no more information left to include. Thanks though, § DDima 04:48, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol delete vote.svg Sorry, but this cannot pass without 5X expansion. — Maile (talk) 11:46, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
 * It can, however, pass if the article becomes a good article, which this seems capable of doing. I recommend that you nominate it there and then restart this once it passes.  S ven M anguard   Wha?  17:11, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for looking into this, and your advice. Cheers, § DDima 05:35, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
