Improved to Good Article status by Andrzejbanas (talk). Self-nominated at 16:43, 19 January 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Star Raiders; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
The QPQ is done and the article qualifies for DYK based on the recent GA promotion on 1-19-24. The article is cited and referenced and Earwig only alerts to quotes or titles. The article has two fair use, and three free images. I am sure the infobox image is FU allowed unsure about the other file File:Star-Raiders-Gameplay-footage.webm. I prefer ALT0 as interesting and the source for the hook is offline so I AGF. The article is neutral. Bruxton (talk) 18:10, 20 January 2024 (UTC)
