Improved to Good Article status by CollectiveSolidarity (talk). Self-nominated at 18:53, 15 August 2022 (UTC).
Newly promoted GA, so plenty long enough with no quality issues. Hook is acceptable length, neutral, reasonably interesting, and cited in the article. Nominator's third DYK, so QPQ not yet required. Good to go. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 06:28, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
- @CollectiveSolidarity and Pi.1415926535: The source says, "Miyazaki compared the mythology that Martin wrote for Elden Ring to that of the dungeon master’s handbook in a tabletop RPG." However, the hook proposed above implies that the quote is talking about the writing process. I'm suggesting ALTs below:
ALT1 ... that the lead writer of Elden Ring compared George R. R. Martin's contributions to the mythology to "the dungeon master’s handbook in a tabletop RPG"?- ALT2 ... that the writer of Elden Ring compared the game's mythology to using a dungeon master's handbook in a tabletop RPG?
- Z1720 ALT 2 works fine for me. CollectiveSolidarity (talk) 23:59, 18 August 2022 (UTC)
- Thoughts? Z1720 (talk) 23:46, 18 August 2022 (UTC)
- Good catch, Z1720. ALT2 also works for me. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 00:23, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
