(

... that the free-to-play video game Gravity Bone uses id Software's Quake 2 engine and incorporates music by Asian filmmaker Wong Kar Wai?

Comment: 5x expansion (1727 characters to 9038 characters)

Created/expanded by Hahc21 (talk). Self nom at 00:55, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

First thing I noticed was that there was no inline cite to support Wong Kar Wai as the composer. Second, there was no inline cite to support the Quake 2 engine being used, only a sentence later saying the Quake 2 engine is free. Also, each direct quote needs an inline cite immediately after it, not a sentence or two later. (There are a lot of these that need inline cites.) Otherwise, the expansion from 1727 of readable prose on December 10 to 9047 on December 12 meets the 5x requirement. Referencing is good. I was unable to find any plagiarism. The hook is okay to use if there's a removal of either "id Software's" or "Quake 2's"—those two possessives do not work at the same time. Here are some options:

"...uses Quake 2's engine..."
"...uses id Software's Quake 2 engine..."
"...uses the Quake 2 engine..."
"...uses id Software's id Tech 2 as the engine..."
"...uses id Tech 2 as the engine..."
These fixes should be easy enough. I expect the nomination will pass. Binksternet (talk) 00:25, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

I will add the inline citations, and have chosen one of your suggestions :) — ΛΧΣ²¹ 02:44, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
