  • ... that Paramount Global sold the entertainment news website ComicBook.com to its former CEO Sam Savage as part of its plan to divest assets and achieve $500 million in cost savings?

General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
  • Cited:  
  • Interesting:  
Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
QPQ: Done.

Overall:   Expanded from redirect from 14 to 16 August and sized at 2003 B. Prefer ALT2 for hookiness. Note that Favre1fan93 is the only nom with >=5 DYKs, so assuming DYK rules count hook proposers as nominators the review is for him. While ALT0 ref doesn't say Sam Savage, ref 4 has it covered. @Favre1fan93 and Trailblazer101: there is only one problem needed to fix: there is very close paraphrasing with "holding page with some comic book related press releases and sales links on it", including in ALT2, but replacing it with "holding page containing sales links and press releases" should be fine with respect to WP:LIMITED. Another thought I had was adding the CBS or Paramount ownership to ALT2 given how important the companies are globally (especially the latter), but consider this optional. ミラP@Miraclepine 16:36, 28 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Miraclepine: I've adjusted the close paraphrasing here (I still retained at the end that they were comic book-related but let me know if that's still too much) and adjusted it in ALT2 as well. We could add in at the very end of ALT2 , formerly for CBS and Paramount if you think that would help. That would bring the hook character count up to 183. Let me know if you'd prefer that and if there's anything else. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:45, 28 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Favre1fan93: I've had some time thinking about this, and on second thought, it's already hooky without having to be a little long, especially when combining the contrast between the narrower field the site's name suggests (comic books) and the broader field the site actually covers (general entertainment) with another large contrast (originally PRs and promo links, now news content), so ALT2 without the ending it is.   ALT0-2, prefer ALT2 ミラP@Miraclepine 16:56, 28 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
