Princess Lucia
edit- ... that only the first three volumes of the manga series Princess Lucia have been licensed in English?
- ALT1:... that the manga series Princess Lucia began as a one-shot, went on hiatus, and switched magazines before it was finally completed?

Written neutrally, QPQ done, hook sourced and faithful to source, Earwig's copyvio tool negative, age ok, BUT expansion too small (needs another 91 words or ~270 characters. Can you please expand a little? Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 01:28, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
- @Casliber: what did you use to calculate the character count? Because using the cut & paste tool, I get 1565 characters, which is supposed to be sufficient. G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 01:50, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
- The Dr pda/prosesize tool. It doesn't count bulleted lists or indented text, so didn't count the sentences on the characters. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 04:09, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
- @Casliber: Well, if you don't count those, then I guess you might as well fail this nom, because I don't have anything more I can add to the article. :/ G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 04:19, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
- DYKcheck pegs the readable prose size at 1239 characters, meaning at least another 261 prose characters would be needed. The absolute minimum is 1500 prose characters; words do not come into the equation for DYK. However, G S Palmer, you can certainly turn the list of characters into prose, which might solve the length problem. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:32, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
- I have an idea what I could add, however, I can't possibly get to it anytime before tomorrow afternoon. G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 01:55, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
- @Casliber and BlueMoonset: I added a bit of content, and the cut and paste tool now gives me 1513 characters excluding the character list (there was no practical way I could convert it into prose). However, since this took place almost a month after the original expansion, I doubt this article is eligible any longer. G S Palmer (talk • contribs) 02:16, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
- G S Palmer, we always allow people to fix issues raised in the review, including being too short, so you're still eligible even if it takes a few rounds to get everything fixed. DYKcheck, which is the DYK gold standard when it comes to character count, gives the current prose count as 1470 characters, so you're a wee bit short still.

- Update: I've just added a short sentence to the start of the Characters section (please check for accuracy), and also corrected the tense in the English release section, since January 2016 releases haven't happened yet, so the article's now at 1525 prose characters. I'd say it's ready for Cas Liber to continue his review. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:59, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
