General eligibility:

New enough: - KSUB and KXBN expanded 4.9- and 3.6-fold, respectively. The first should be fine, but I'm unfamiliar with protocols re: showcasing more than one expanded article.
Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Someone more well-versed in expanded-fivefold best practices should weigh in, otherwise it looks good to go. Kyuko (talk) 13:57, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Kyuko: Hey, welcome to DYK. Both pages show as 5x expansions in readable prose size using DYKcheck. Readable prose size, not total byte size, is the standard for measuring page size at DYK, and by that metric these meet the length requirement. (KSUB: 180 -> 3369 (18x), KXBN: 435 -> 3615 (8x)) Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 17:39, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Sammi Brie: Perfect! Should be good to go then.
