  • Sorry, about that. But its too short. It doesn't even meet the limit of 2000 characters. Try squeezing out an extra paragraph or two. --KAVEBEAR (talk) 02:33, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
  • DYK requires 1500 characters, not 2000. Nevertheless, I am planning to expand the article further, but I'm waiting for sources.
  • Rule 2.a) Articles must have a minimum of 1,500 characters of prose (ignoring infoboxes, categories, references, lists, and tables etc.) Yazan (talk) 02:36, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
  • Okay. It is good to go.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 02:47, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
  • Thank you for your review. Nevertheless, --and I really don't mean to be a pain-- but you should mention that you checked the DYK criteria in detail, and whether the article meets it or not. A simple tick is not sufficient, I'm afarid. And if I was the one looking to promote this nomination, I'd have second thoughts, because there isn't a detailed review. Many thanks anyway.

  • For the sake of redundancy then: long enough, new enough, pretty enough, image is free use, sources and lack of plagiarism taken on good faith. I made a few little tweaks. Well done, Zozo. I looked at some of the photos in Palmyra--that's fantastic. Drmies (talk) 03:54, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
  • Many thanks to both of you. Better safe than stale ;) Yazan (talk) 04:54, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
  • Sorry I did include the review in my original assessment before. "Well referenced, Interesting and cited hook. Good to go." My only problem was with the length which it meets. --KAVEBEAR (talk) 18:42, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
