ALT1:... that the popularity of sports manga has been linked to the implementation and subsequent lifting of a ban on traditional Japanese sports during the occupation of Japan? Source: Manga! Manga! The World of Japanese Comics
ALT3:... that decompression is a common narrative technique in sports manga, with one series streching a four-month basketball season into six years' worth of weekly serialized stories? (Source: "An Overview of Manga Genres" in Manga - An Anthology of Global and Cultural Perspectives)
Overall: This easily passes all the necessary guidelines, though I feel the coverage of more recent decades (2000s and 2010s) to be a bit sparse; Haikyuu is a pretty big title that isn't mentioned here, despite its effect on high school volleyball popularity. As for the hooks, I would drop ALT1 and ALT4 as they are less interesting, and the latter creates a sea of blue links. I find ALT3 to be the most interesting, though I suggest adding a link to Slam Dunk and appending "time" before decompression to get the point across. SounderBruce 21:38, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
