Not a 5x expansion

John Snow

[edit]
  •  ... that before there was a JON Snow there was John Snow, an English physician that administrated anesthesia to Queen Victoria for the birth of her eighth child in 1853.Source: John Snow

  • Thank you for your contribution, LauraBou, but a hook should be less than 200 characters. It should not be descriptive, but "hooky" to make the reader want to click on the article. Yoninah (talk) 23:26, 18 March 2017 (UTC)
  • More to the point, this is nowhere near a 5x expansion - only grown from 22 to 27 kbytes in the 2 months to the nom (or the present). Sorry! Johnbod (talk) 17:49, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
