      • I assume you have access to the internet, a large repository of knowledge created by humankind. It may have the answer you seek. But seriously, this video is very long. I did not watch the whole thing, and I'm not sure if many people will. I've never seen a nomination for a video longer than a few seconds really, so I think we're not going to be very equipped to judge this. Can you link the failed FSC nomination, out of interest?

          • DW is textese for devoted wife, I believe. Not sure about TL, but in this case it could be too long.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 19:58, 25 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
          • In terms of length, I have gotten entire 1-hour or so state of the union addresses promoted at WP:FSC so this length is quite modest, IMO.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 20:00, 25 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
            • Yeah, sure, but I was saying that over here, at featured pictures, I'm pretty sure we've never had a nomination for a video of this length. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 10:41, 26 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose I don't see the EV. The meeting with the President is barely mentioned in the articles. Cowtowner (talk) 18:21, 26 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
