Ambiguous and confusing
The variable name refers to "ArticleSize", and the prose refers to "the text of the revision" and "page size", all suggesting that this is about file size. But the prose also speaks of post-expand include size, a completely different animal. Since max PEIS is in fact 2048 kB, one might reasonably conclude that this is about PEIS, not file size. But the ambiguity has added some confusion to an already-confused situation, and it should be eliminated by clarification of the prose (I understand that a change to a better variable name could be problematic).
