Ultimate Team
- ... that Ultimate Team is a video game mode most popular among young people, but is also regularly criticized as a form of gambling? Source: Percival, Joey D'Urso and Holly. "FIFA Ultimate Team 'loot boxes': gaming or gambling?".
- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/A Tale of Magic...
- Comment: Could also have a hook comparing the football subject to the quote about "glamorous runway", and anyone is welcome to propose hooks.
Moved to mainspace by Kingsif (talk). Self-nominated at 00:09, 16 February 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Ultimate Team; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
- New enough, moved from draft 2-15. Long enough.
- Hook is sourced in article, but needs one here. I went ahead and added it for you. Also, your sources throughout the article aren't consistent; I suggest that you go and format them correctly.
- Your hook is a little unclear, especially to us non-gamers, which is why I hesitate suggesting a new one. If you prefer ALT0, I'm fine with keeping it. ALT1: ... that the popular video game mode Ultimate Team has been criticized for its reliance on loot box packs, considered a controversial form of gambling?
- Proper QPQ.
- My only real problem with this article is the source formatting; once you take care of that, we should be good to go. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 18:53, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
Needs someone to review alt1 as proposed by previous reviewer. Kingsif (talk) 00:38, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
- I didn't mean that there needed to be a source for the hook, but I added it to demonstrate how it's done. One of the requirements is the following: "...that each boldlinked article is well-sourced, neutral, BLP-compliant, and copyvio-free." It can be argued that inconsistent formatting of sources fails the well-sourced requirement. If there's disagreement about that interpretation, I'm okay with withdrawing the request for this DYK, although it's a good idea for the nominator to do it, anyway. I was making a suggestion for another possible hook; if the nominator likes it, yes another reviewer needs to approve it. If the nominator didn't like it, I'm willing to withdraw my suggestion and approve ALT0. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 17:08, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
ALT1 is short enough, cited, and interesting; would probably yeet 'popular' for concision, but I'll leave that to the prepbuilder. I see nowhere in WP:DYKCITE that requires anything other than clothed URLs, so let's roll.--Launchballer 10:21, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, agreed. Good work. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 17:09, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
