  • Sorry, Nihaal The Wikipedian, but it's not eligible. Ethanol is currently over 33,000 prose characters, so the required five times expansion is not really possible. Anders Torlind hasn't edited the article since creating it in 2001. (Also, the nomination hasn't been transcluded.) Please see WP:DYK for more information. If you get the article to Good article status, you may resubmit within a week of that designation. MANdARAX  XAЯAbИAM 08:03, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
