Overall: the article has two edits only in the View history, first it was created and in the second edit, only a wiki link has been added. So, I'm not sure if it has been expanded 5x. The first hook is more interesting, the second hook is less interesting. This is my second review only, so I would appreciate it if someone else could look over it.
