Nana's Party

(

)

... that the character Pat, from Inside No. 9 episode "Nana's Party", was described by critics variously as an "irritating tit", an "insufferable booby" and a "desperately sad and dignified man"?

5x expanded by J Milburn (talk). Self-nominated at 14:26, 19 July 2015 (UTC).

Sorry, but the article's prose size has not been expanded 5x. Just prior to expansion (diff) the article was at 3,265 B, and the present version is at 11,000 B (diff). A five-fold expansion requires the article to have a prose size of at least 16,325 B. Note that prose size does not include content in infoboxes, further reading, references, external links sections and quote boxes. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 13:21, 22 July 2015 (UTC)

Damnit, I hadn't noticed that. There's not enough material out there for me to expand it that far. I do note that the only referenced content in the article previously was copy-pasted from another article I'd written (without attribution!) and that the rest was unsourced plot. I feel that the expansion is within the spirit of the guidelines, though probably not the letter. If that's not enough, that's not enough. Josh Milburn (talk) 15:49, 22 July 2015 (UTC)

Don't give up yet. You can have it promoted to Good Article if there's enough time. Can you do that? George Ho (talk) 05:49, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

I recently withdrew the GA nomination as I found some more sources I should be incorporating. I will be renominating soon; this can be placed "on hold" until then, or I can renominate if/when the article passes at GAC. Josh Milburn (talk) 09:21, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

Josh Milburn, since this can't be approved at its current size, the best thing to do is withdraw the nomination now, and then renominate within seven days of it being listed as a GA. Since that could be weeks or months for now, it isn't feasible to keep this open and "on hold" while waiting. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:48, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

Of course- nomination withdrawn. Josh Milburn (talk) 18:13, 6 August 2015 (UTC)
