Your submission at Articles for creation: Al Nilsen (February 21)
edit- If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Al Nilsen and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
- If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
- If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
- May I be allowed to ask for clarification on your comment? You said "Most of the statements in this article aren't about Nilsen at all" and reading through it again, every single statement is about Nilsen and the work he has done in the industry.
- The only part in the article I submitted that "isn't about Nilsen" is the short Console Wars section. I can remove that section, but I had included it since the book is heavily made up of quotes from Al Nilsen, and the documentary shows many interviews with Nilsen. The Console Wars book and documentary have brought new attention to Al's work in choosing Sonic as Sega's mascot, coming up with the idea for the first ever global release date, and spearheading a unique playtesting mall tour which was widely covered by the media and helped to skyrocket Sonic's popularity near the previously untouchable Mario franchise.
