  • At 1200 Bytes of readable prose, it doesn't meet DYK's minimum length requirements. Schwede66 05:05, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
  • Looks like I beat the editor to it; now it's long enough. Haven't looked at any of the other requirements. Schwede66 05:18, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
  • We've also have this article for years at Virginia M. Rometty.--Milowenthasspoken 18:06, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
  • Bummer. If I understand the revision history correctly, the prior article was some 800 Bytes prior to the merge. This is thus not a new article, but an expansion, but as an approx 2 times expansion, it's a long way off from meeting DYK requirements. Sorry. But good that somebody spotted that there was an existing article. Schwede66 19:21, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
  • I was about to comment, but then saw that the original wasn't a UBLP...so the 2x for UBLPs doesn't apply either. Shame. - The Bushranger One ping only 00:49, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
Y'all can take chain-smoker Mark Block as a replacement if you want.  :-) --Milowenthasspoken 20:06, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
Sure. What you need to do is create a separate / new nomination for him. Schwede66 20:39, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
