  • Thanks for the quick review Template:U. I believe I have expanded the article enough to fit the 5x expansion criteria. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 22:42, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
  • Beauty! I couldn't resist jumping on a Quebec-related DYK since my own DYK was about Quebecois food :) Length all looks fantastic, soon as your QPQ is done we're solid. ♠PMC(talk) 23:09, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
