1993 Congressional hearings on video games

 * ... that the formation of the Entertainment Software Ratings Board was prompted by US Senator Joe Lieberman through congressional hearings held in 1993?
 * ALT1:... that sales of the video game Night Trap were boosted following the 1993 US Congressional hearings on video game content ratings due to the game being one of those under debate?
 * Comment: I need to do a QPQ. Will update once done. This is a new article drafted in user space, moved to mainspace and mostly complete.

 * That's just incomplete. I think there's another one too. --M asem (t) 21:52, 14 November 2018 (UTC)
 * There's the ALT (needed to make sure it wasn't a similar fact on any related article). Still need QPQ. --M asem (t) 21:56, 14 November 2018 (UTC)
 * I personally prefer the ALT as more interesting. It's definitely a nuetral hook, and I will assume good faith with regards to accuracy and copyright as it is cited to an offline source that seems legitimate. Article is more than long enough and was moved from draft to main space less than 12 hours before nomination. We'll be good to go once you provide the QPQ.

 * Symbol possible vote.svg I have reopened this as the article contains several unsourced paragraphs. Pinging the nominator . Gatoclass (talk) 18:19, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I believe I have taken care of the unsourced paragraphs at this point. --M asem (t) 19:54, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
