- Comment: This is my first DYK nomination.

Created by Captain Galaxy (talk). Self-nominated at 10:22, 15 October 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Turbo Dismount; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

The current hook seems to violate WP:DYKFICTION. Bremps... 23:02, 1 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- ALT2: ...that Turbo Dismount added a vehicle based on the DMC DeLorean from Back to the Future Part II called the "LeDorean"?

Would this alt work, as the Delorean was a real vehicle? Captain Galaxy 14:23, 2 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I still feel it violates the DYKFICTION policy. The game could add any sort of vehicle they want with no regard to the constraints of reality. I'll welcome second opinions though. Bremps... 01:01, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know if it violates house style and guidelines, but User:Captain Galaxy should consider coming up with more hooks to choose from in the event that we need them. Viriditas (talk) 21:50, 5 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Will do although I am a bit busy at the moment so you can expect them by the end of next week. Captain Galaxy 00:12, 6 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not seeing a review of the article, so I'm doing one. New enough, long enough. No neutrality problems found, no copyright problems found, no maintenance templates found. You do need a different hook, so I'm suggesting

- ALT3: ... that Turbo Dismount released a playable web demo to stave off bankruptcy?--Laun chba ller 09:33, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  - Launchballer, we need an inline citation for the part of the article that supports the hook. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 18:03, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    - I've knocked the two sentences together, it's in the next cite in the video.--Laun chba ller 23:06, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
      - ALT3 is interesting, cited, and approved. Striking the other two as unapproved. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 13:03, 14 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  - I do like the new suggestion, do you guys still want me to come up with anything or is there no point? CaptainGalaxy 18:32, 14 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    - If you're ok with it, no need to come up with extra alts. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 18:51, 14 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
