Pokémon Go
[edit]- ... that Pokémon Go is an augmented reality video game in which players explore the real world to catch Pokémon?
- ALT1:... that Pokémon Go's release was paused due to high server strain?
- ALT2:... that following the release of Pokémon Go, Nintendo's share price rose by 50%?

- The lead image appears to be fair use. Just FYI. TimothyJosephWood 12:29, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
- @Timothyjosephwood: Pardon? There are no images in the lead, if you're talking about Haunter photo, I wanted to make a hook that involved it but I couldn't find anything inside the article that talked about the gatherings. Maybe I'll add content about it myself and create a new hook. Anarchyte (work | talk) 12:31, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
- I was talking about the logo...which may be completely irrelevant. I don't really mess with front page stuff. TimothyJosephWood 12:33, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
- @Timothyjosephwood: Oh, I misread your first message! I thought you wrote that it was free-use, not fair-use. Yeah, it is fair-use and so I'm pretty sure that means we can't use it anywhere except the article (including DYKs). Anarchyte (work | talk) 12:36, 14 July 2016 (UTC)

The article has existed long enough, especially with the unexpected recent phenomenon of the game. I would personally nominate ALT2, especially when the game is so big that Nintendo's shares had increased by a massive amount, even though the game was released about a week ago.
