Overall: The article was not 5x expanded. It was 1534 prose characters pre-expansion and is currently at 3027 prose characters. This nomination could pass if the article is further expanded. Also, the source for ALT0 doesn't mention that this was the shortest Texas speaker term, just that his term was 7 days. There could be a second source added to provide all the information. Copyvio check fine. No QPQ required. ALT0 is more interesting in my opinion. Riley1012 (talk) 00:14, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
