• Hi @Graearms: Nice work on this article, but unfortunately per WP:DYKSPLIT, splits are not treated as new articles (in the DYK sense). By my count, there's 9431 characters on vittae in this old version of Weddings in Ancient Rome, and 10061 characters in the current version of Vittae, so it doesn't qualify for a 5x expansion either. Maybe submit it to WP:GA? Best, Tenpop421 (talk) 20:20, 18 January 2025 (UTC)
