Lede
edit- It's not a requirement for GAN, but I'd suggest including the court case infobox
- "legal case where the" → "legal case in which the"
- "As one of the earliest legal rulings" → "One of the earliest legal rulings" – the "as" sets up a comparison that does not happen
Background
edit- "October, 1979," → "October 1979" per MOS:BADDATE
- "immediately successful upon release" → "an immediate success upon its release"
- "March of 1981" → "March 1981" per MOS:BADDATE
Ruling
edit- "and was tried by"
- lowercase and delink "Judge" per MOS:OVERLINK
- Link "monopoly"
- "on a game about" → "on any game about"
- "But Judge Young did" This sentence pops out of nowhere and needs a little more setup to indicate that Young's primary ruling was that the copyright claim was generally invalid
- Also, don't start sentences with conjunctions
" No comma after "protection to Atari"
- Lowercase "defendants"
- "he compared it" → "Young compared it"
- "twenty-two instances" → "22 instances" per MOS:NUMERAL
- "as well as the rocks always splitting" → "and that the rocks always split"
- "In
theJudge Young's analysis" - "to the overall idea"
Effects
edit- "Early in the development of video game law, it was part of the "Atari trilogy" of cases" → "Atari v. Amusement World was part of the "Atari trilogy" of cases the helped define early video game law"
- The other cases should be italicized as court cases
- "scenes-a-faire" should also be italicized and should have the accents/diacritics
- Both Vanderbilt Law Review and University of Pennsylvania Law Review should be italicized as the names of publications
Legacy
edit- "notes that this was" → "notes that Atari v. Amusement World was"
- Once again, all court cases should be italicized
- "Corp. that gave" → "Corp., which gave"
References
edit- Good
General comments
edit- No images used in the article, thus cannot assess for those parameters
- No stability concerns in the revision history
- Copyvio score looks high, but it's all proper nouns and properly attributed quotes
Putting on hold to allow nominator to address comments. Feel free to ping me with questions, and let me know when you're finished! — GhostRiver 17:24, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
