Lego Bionicle: The Legend of Mata Nui
... that after several developmental builds of the cancelled 2001 video game Lego Bionicle: The Legend of Mata Nui were leaked online in 2018, Bionicle fans created an independent video game development studio to complete the game?- ALT1:... that the Lego Group were concerned that the cancelled 2001 video game Lego Bionicle: The Legend of Mata Nui, based on their line of Bionicle constructable action figures, was too violent?
- ALT2:... that according to its development team, Lego Bionicle: The Legend of Mata Nui was around 90% complete at the time it was cancelled in 2001?

Improved to Good Article status by Toa Nidhiki05 (talk). Self-nominated at 01:06, 21 October 2019 (UTC).
The article was promoted to good article status in time, and meets general DYK article requirements. No close paraphrasing was found apart from quotes from sources, and a QPQ has been done. Of the hooks proposed, the first probably appeals the most to a broad audience and probably gives the most justice to the fate of the game. The main concern that is preventing me from giving me the tick is that the sentence that discusses the hook fact (about the independent studio), which goes To develop and release a completed version of the game, The Beaverhouse created Litestone Studios, an independent game studio
is referenced to IGN, but the IGN link does not mention Litestone or the studio explicitly: instead, the information is actually in Quillstreak reference (i.e. the footnote should be reference #3 instead of #1). The Quillstreak also seems to be inconsistent with Litestone's name in comparison to the article: is it Team Litestone, or is it Litestone Studios? Overall, a very interesting article and a very interesting hook, and the nomination should be good to go once these minor issues have been addressed.

- Citation error is fixed now; IGN should have been used for the sentence above it, not the one cited, which was an oversight on my part. As for the name, the studio itself is Litestone Studios (as evidenced from their YouTube and social media presence). My guess would be that Team Litestone refers to the actual dev team itself (which happens to comprise the entirety of the studio). Toa Nidhiki05 01:00, 23 October 2019 (UTC)

There are no more issues so this should be good to go now. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 01:14, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
- @Narutolovehinata5: ALT0 which you approved is 226 characters long. Yoninah (talk) 23:14, 7 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: How about a shortened version of ALT0?
- ALT0a ... that after development builds of the cancelled video game Lego Bionicle: The Legend of Mata Nui leaked online, Bionicle fans created a video game development studio to complete the game?
- This version is 186 characters long and trims some of the detail while keeping the main facts. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 23:30, 7 November 2019 (UTC)
