- I have watched lots of other editors come in and make these DYK templates after I've done the work on GA. It is nice to see but I am not sure if I am supposed to comment or if I can even provide any kind of input. I would change a few words to make the DYK comment more accurate: ALT2: ... that the video game case Micro Star v. FormGen Inc. affirmed that copyright owners have the exclusive right to make sequels?Technically the precedent for this is much older but Micro Star is a more modern case applying it directly to video games.
