K-25
[edit]- ... that the K-25 gaseous diffusion plant (pictured in 2012 during demolition) was once the largest building under one roof in the world?
5x expanded by Hawkeye7 (talk). Self-nominated at 13:45, 13 June 2016 (UTC).
- Long enough for sure. more than a five time expansion between May 29 and now so it meets the size requirement too. QPQ done.
- Image license looks appropriate.
- Technically the source says "largest building under one room", not sure if that's the same as "largest building" without that qualifier?
- I see an overlap in prose with "Due to construction needs at K-25 and elsewhere on the reservation, the town of Oak Ridge, originally designed for 13,000 people, grew to 50,000 b" see here - the other hits seems to be on terms that cannot really be avoided when talking about this subject.
- @Hawkeye7: the hook does not match the source 100% and there is a phrase overlap that needs to be addressed. MPJ-US 23:55, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- bingo, figured it was a fairly quick fix. MPJ-US 02:42, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
