5x expanded by Nvvchar (talk). Self nominated at 11:30, 26 March 2015 (UTC).
The article is sufficiently long as it was expanded by more than five times from the version dated 29 January 2015 (685 characters) to 5,505 characters on 26 March 2015. Both the original and ALT1 hooks are referenced, and are of suitable length. I prefer ALT1 as the original hook is not very clear to readers who have never heard of Yagnavalkya or the "knowledge of Brahman". I have reworded the hooks slightly, particularly ALT1 since I'm sure there were as many women during the Vedic period as there are now! — SMUconlaw (talk) 16:04, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
