  • Article seems good, but hook could be better - How about that Guide generates computer generated news anchors from written news stories? Ego White Tray (talk) 04:59, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
  • Is that supported directly in the article? SilverserenC 18:35, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
  • My one thought about the hook suggested by Ego White Tray is that it seems to be saying that Guide uses the news stories to generate news anchors, which is a bit confusing. What about:
ALT "... that the company Guide uses computer generated news anchors in its app to turn written news stories into video episodes?"
(Full disclosure: as mentioned above, I have a COI on this topic, so please take this into account in reviewing my suggestion.) Thanks, 16912 Rhiannon (Talk · COI) 20:57, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
  • Article created 28 February, long enough (2,302 characters), fully sourced. Hook (121 characters) verified against online sources. Good to go! Hawkeye7 (talk) 05:43, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
