Article was only 3x expanded, well short of the 5x expansion; student nominator has not responded to pings, so closing as unsuccessful.

Overall: 
This article is in pretty good condition but it still needs significant (+~8,000-character) expansion to be eligible for DYK. Also, if you'd like to include a picture with this nomination, there are lots of lovely options from this page. Anikavarsani, are you interested in trying to continue expanding this article to hit the 5x threshold to make it eligible for DYK? —Collint c 19:56, 13 October 2022 (UTC)
Unless Anikavarsani signals their intent to take this article down the stretch, I think it's probably time to close this one up. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 22:09, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
- Yep, I'd be happy to give two more days for a response to let us know if Anikavarsani is interested in continuing to expand the article; otherwise, we can close this one on October 22. Thanks —Collint c 03:07, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
- I've left them a message on their talk page. If they still do not respond afterwards I think this can be closed. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 03:26, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
- Anikavarsani, as there hasn't been any movement on the article in over a week, I'm unfortunately going to have to reject this article from Did You Know as it doesn't meet the 5× expansion criterion. I do hope you'll continue doing this good work on other articles as, though you didn't hit a 5× expansion, you did greatly improve the article over its earlier form. I hope to see another of your articles on DYK sometime soon! Kindly —Collint c 16:43, 23 October 2022 (UTC)
