a note on lengths

ARTICLE LENGTH LENGTH- BACKGROUND CUMULATIVE LENGTH Background User:Eddie891/Roosevelt memoirs 2286 B 2286 B 2286 B This I Remember 5137 B 2851 B 5137 B This Is My Story (memoir) 4999 B 2713 B 7850 B On My Own (memoir) 3581 B 1295 B 9145 The Autobiography of Eleanor Roosevelt 3673 B 1387 B 10532 B Using Wikipedia:Prosesize, I got the readable prose size of each article (listed above). Because the background is the exact same in each article, I subtracted it from the individual article lengths and only included it once in the final total. My total is that the four articles have 10,532 B of unique readable prose total, which averages out to 2633 B per article, which should be enough for DYK guidelines.

@Eddie891: as the opening paragraph and background section are copied in all the 4 articles, it can only be counted once for 1500 character minimum in one article as per A5 guideline. I suggest that you increase the size of one of the two articles by 600 characters that is not meeting the minimum requirement. Also adding her photo might be a good idea as this is a multi-article hook. Roller26 (talk) 07:44, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for the review, Roller26! I think that I've added enough to The Autobiography of Eleanor Roosevelt with this edit. If that's not enough, couldn't you split the text in the background and lede between the two articles that need some more to meet the length requirements (count half for each article?) I've also added an image of Eleanor to the article. Thanks, again -- Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 20:17, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
