Article length is extreme

Latest comment: 1 year ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Intricate details like how many millenials know about the Holocaust (!) needs to be trimmed or moved to sub-articles. WP:Article size rules would suggest reducing the word count by half, which could be accomplished by further splits. I appreciate the work that must have gone into this article but the detail here is really overboard. (t · c) buidhe 05:43, 28 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Oh, no worries! It is only a draft being edited or updated at a leisurely pace. Nerd271 (talk) 14:14, 28 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
