- Article is new enough, long enough, and I did not see any policy violations. QPQ not required since you've only received 1 DYK. Impressive article, and great work finding sources for it. I'd like to propose a different hook though, since the original doesn't quite make it clear why people would switch characters.
- ALT3: ... that Wisps, creatures in the Sonic the Hedgehog video games, were added to Sonic Colors as power-ups so that the player would not have to switch characters to experience varied gameplay?
- Let me know if the change is acceptable. --Odie5533 (talk) 23:39, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
Need an independent reviewer to check ALT3, since it adds a new fact not in previous hooks, and reviewers can't review their own hooks. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:05, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
- The new fact is from the IGN article which states:
- "Essentially the objective is to empower Sonic with different abilities so that, rather than bringing in any other characters, now we can essentially have different types of gameplay, but not only that, but by empowering Sonic with the different colour powers."

ALT3. New (25th), long enough, "within policy", no copyvio found via spotcheck (no tool), QPQ not required. Hook has immediate ref in article (see 3b). Not sure that chart is going to make it through formal review, though—just a heads up. That type of info is usually best put in prose, or at least organized in a smaller table. Otherwise, looks good!
