5x expanded by Bloom6132 (talk). Self-nominated at 12:00, 21 August 2022 (UTC).[reply]

Expanded at least 5× within five days of nomination (11× in fact), long enough, neutral and well-cited. Refactored a few sentences to further paraphrase them. Hook is broadly interesting and directly cited. QPQ requirement satisfied. DigitalIceAge (talk) 05:35, 3 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
