• Comment — There is an ongoing discussion for changing the article's title to NYXL (company). I wonder, till then (probably it'll take a week), should we put this nomination on hold? – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 05:01, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

• while we're on that, I'm not sure I quite like a hook that says an author is the ceo of a company (like, so is Hank Green)—is there an alternative we can find? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 22:14, 10 April 2022 (UTC)

Theleekycauldron Is that a no? SL93 (talk) 20:33, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

@SL93: i won't reject it outright, but I'm also not inclined to tick it—I'm not wild about it, but my interestingness bar tends to be a little high. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 20:39, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

I see. That's the only thing I can scrounge out of the article for a hook. Pinging nominator Pbrks SL93 (talk) 20:42, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

• ALT2: ... that NYXL was the first organization to own and operate multiple New York esports franchises? – Pbrks ^(t • c) 20:48, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

  Again, not my cup of tea, but I won't interfere if others decide to tick and promote. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 09:40, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
