  • Comment: QPQ won't be coming until Thursday. Currently away from my home desktop PC and my tiny little fingers get worn out fast doing all this on a phone! Expansion and improvement not yet completed, but figured it was best to submit this DYK now before the window closed. Again, mobile phone not an ideal medium for a large-scale project like this. At the moment the article has been expanded just over 5x; by the time I'll be done, it may be as large as 10x. But that won't happen until at least this weekend. Until then… Done!
