• ... that the Mercedes-Benz AMG Vision Gran Turismo was the first Vision Gran Turismo car?

Created/expanded by Fixer88 (talk). Self-nominated at 20:14, 18 March 2020 (UTC).

• Long enough. New enough. Well written; neutral. Inline citations throughout the article but missing in three areas. I've marked where they are needed. No copyright violations. The hook is ok; the fact that it's the first Vision Gran Turismo is sourced although I needed to re-read the sentence a few times. No QPQ. So, fix the CNs, (and add a QPQ if necessary.)

• Comment - Hi, I 've fixed the three CNs. Is there anything else needed? Fixer88 (talk) 05:52, 23 April 2020 (UTC)

• PInging Hybernator to continue the review. Note that I have checked, and this appears to be Fixer88's first DYK; there are no prior DYK credits in their talk page history, so no QPQ is needed. BlueMoonset (talk) 14:15, 23 April 2020 (UTC)

• . No QPQ needed per BlueMoonset. Nominator has also removed all three sentences that needed additional citations. GTG. Hybernator (talk) 20:42, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

• Hi, I came by to promote this, but the hook wording is rather repetitive. Is there any way to pipe the bolded link, or perhaps write something hookier? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 09:06, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

While I'm not sure about the exact wording, perhaps the "developed as a concept car in a video game but later built as a real-life model" angle could work as a hook? Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 14:29, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

• @Hybernator, BlueMoonset, and Yoninah: I've tried contacting the nominator Fixer88 multiple times over the past few weeks but they haven't responded to the hook wording concerns despite being active elsewhere on Wikipedia. Should something be done about this nomination or would it be better to just wait? Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 02:40, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
• I've lost interest in this nomination and thus I have no desire to continue. Fixer88 (talk) 05:01, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
