It is 422 B (60 words) here, and 2044 B (335 words) currently according to Dr PDAs prose counter...I was counting words, but will find some more bytes. Casliber (talk · contribs) 20:44, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

From what I see you need about 60 more characters to pass a 5x. Im using the character counter found here --Kev min § 22:42, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

Frustrating. It's quite a well-known little critter and finding stuff online has proven remarkably elusive. I think I can manage it... Casliber (talk · contribs) 00:28, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

Length now OK. Age, neutrality, sources are fine. No copyvio or plagiarism. No close paraphrasing (as far as it is possible to avoid it given the subject). Hook is fine. I've added a crop of the original picture which loses some of the background. The article is a bit perfunctory - nothing on breeding, social behaviour, diet, etc., etc. - not that this disqualifies it from DYK, but still. Yomangani ^talk 10:59, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

Fully agree with Yomangani, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:05, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
