Too long

[edit]

The too long tag has been there a year; it's 20,000 words readable prose size. With Winston Churchill, it's the highest profile article that is too long - WP:Article Size. There are different ways of trimming but it needs to be trimmed. Most or all of the main child/sub articles have been set-up already so it's simply a case of summarising them here, Tom B (talk) 09:07, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Moved paragraphs to relevant pages and trimmed content to be a little more precise. Abc747 (talk) 15:58, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Abc747, thanks for that, but please don't remove the tag just yet - more is needed still. Nikkimaria (talk) 17:18, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, sorry, just trying to be helpful! Abc747 (talk) 17:28, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, not like it's the most influential figure of the 20th century... there is so much to say that one easily falls into omissions, superficiality and skewed impressions when trimming it. I don't want to sound too rigid - but I hope you understand what I mean. Shoshin000 (talk) 18:20, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
