It appears as if you recreated deleted content on 19 April 2007 at Burger King menu items. The majority of the text was taken verbatum from a previously deleted article, and the word wrap issues suggests that you copy and pasted it from another source (perhaps a google cache or wikipedia mirror?) Anyway, I know it was a long time ago, but I'm writing you know to say that if you want to use deleted content, in the future please go through the deletion review process. Doing what you did violates the copyright/license (GFDL) of the original contributors. It is important to keep the page history in tact, so that the ones responsible for creating the article are credited. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about this, and thanks for your consideration.-Andrew c [talk] 01:38, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

In regards to your post on my talk page: yes I did cut and paste the lower portion of the article from another source, but from the the main article itself not a Google cache or mirror. The information from the deleted article (List of Burger King menu items) was merged back into BK article after the request for deletion. When the Burger king article grew past the 50 KB limit and I sliced BK menu items section and the BK Advertising section out and created the current two articles.
As to the line break issue, I do not know what you are referring to.
As for the entire top half of the article, I pretty much added the top half in the past 30-90 days. I made sure to properly cite any sources I used. I do not understand where you are getting that the whole article is the same as the original one that was merged and deleted.
As such your addition of the tag that states it was deleted in January is incorrect. Please remove it.
Jeremy (Jerem43 02:43, 20 September 2007 (UTC))
Thanks for your comment. Maybe you could help clear this matter up more. What concerns me is this diff. The before is the old article right before it was deleted, and the after is the current revision as of today. As you can clearly see, basically the entirety of the old article is included in the new article. You are correct that the top half of the article is new. What you say about the product page being merged would explain this (although the deletion discussion didn't say merge, and when you merge content, you need to get an admin to merge histories, or at least leave the page as a redirect so the history doesn't get deleted). However, I searched through the history for Burger King and couldn't find where the page was merged and then spun out again. Maybe I'm not looking closely enough, so could you post the diffs? (this diff from a day after the AFD closure, and a few hours before the new article was created in April shows that the Product section of the main article remained basically unchanged in those 2 months, besides the addition of Chicken Fries and video games).
The article has been significantly expanded since the AfD, but it still stands that the vast majority of the article that was deleted is incorporated in the current revision, and therefore the AfD notice should stand (as should the history merger that I performed last night). Thanks.-Andrew c [talk] 15:08, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Burger King (comment on biggest competitor claim)

That statement did not have a source for it and did not follow WP:NPOV. If there is an official statement saying that they are the biggest competitor then it will follow WP:NPOV. Acidskater 05:09, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Assume Good Faith

Please assume good faith when dealing with other editors, which you did not on Talk:Burger King. Thank you. While I can understand your concerns regarding the continued vandalism of the page, referring to people as stupid and fools is not the way to express your dissatisfaction.

GA failed

I just noticed your GA request failed. There are two tags on the article I think they want addressed. One is an expansion tag for a section on controversies. Another is a "gallery" tag. Is there a way for you to distribute those pictures within the time line of the history and place the Hungry Jack's one in with that section's summary? Another suggestion that I wanted to address earlier, although I mentioned the "lead" needed to be smaller, it became too small. As per WP:Lead and article of this size should be 2-4 small paragraphs which summarize the entire article. They should be just that though a summary without detail and should present very broad strokes that probably wouldn't need to be sourced. A broad mention of the fact that thir are controversies, that BK exists in ? number of countries, in (Australia?) it is known as Hungary Jack's, etc. I'm sure with a couple more tweaks it will pass.--Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC 05:23, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

User:SriMesh just added that template back actually, I'm not sure why because the section as you noted is more than adequate. I also expanded the other section that had a tag for expansion which was just an introduction to a larger section.--Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC 06:44, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

AFD menu items

I really hope this article doesn't get deleted, I think you are doing great work with these articles.--Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC 02:43, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

As Messrs Bartles and Jaymes said:

"I thank you for your support"

I do appreciate the compliment.

Thanks for the info. I look forward to it. youngamerican (wtf?) 12:30, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

BK Lead

Although the other user shouldn't have just blanked the whole section, it should read a bit less concise perhaps and with not so much details. That last paragraph gives away almost completely you advertising section of the article. Maybe just mentioning that advertising has changed throughout the years with the corporation, especially with technological updates such as the internet and social networks like Myspace. Then you can mention the logo has developed over the year and some other stuff, but just not so much on one subject. Just my opinion though, but as is the information placed up in the lead needs to be cited. If you check into the WP:Lead it will tell you to avoid putting too much info in the top that needs to be sourced twice. This is an issue I still struggle with as well, specifically because there are so many people with opinions on Wikipedia.--Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC 05:12, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

I was listening to them all night, my apartment is just a couple blocks from Fenway and I can see into the park. The lead is still pretty specific and that is ok, if you are going to state facts you need to put citations in the lead, otherwise you need to be more vague. I adjusted a couple sentences, avoid words like "however" as they can be interpreted as you POV and some will argue that the phrase does not come from secondary sources.--Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC 13:26, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
Also I'm not sure if you saw my comment on the gallery above, you might consider moving the pictures into various parts of the article where they fit such as the history section. I don't mind them where they are, but there is a WP policy against galleries now much like trivia sections.--Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC 13:28, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Burger King 2

I had noticed there was only one person on there and added the other founder, not thinking to make sure that the other name was correct lol. You really gotta wonder what these people get out of vandalism on Wikipedia. It is like they think they will become famous for 30 seconds by doing it.--Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC 05:04, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

GA Review for Burger King

Sorry for the late review for Burger King, I almost finish reviewing the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Macys123 (talkcontribs) 19:19, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

Burger King 3

Congratulations on finally getting the article to GA status. I know you put a lot of work into getting the article to that point and it looks great. What is you next goal? I'm starting to work on the Japanese cuisine article to bring it to GA.--Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC 19:45, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Template:Infobox Burger King has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the template's entry on the Templates for Deletion page. Thank you. Rettetast 18:42, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

BK

Excellent articles, well written. I will help add references, and format the existing ones. Try and use the standard "cite" template that I have used in the Stacker article, so they all have the same look and feel. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 08:02, 3 December 2007 (UTC) Don't forget to use the quote function in the cite template. It makes it easier to see what your actually quoting from in the text. I went to one article and couldn't find where you go the material. Dont frget Google News, its always gives references to the best website, and the most stable links. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 19:34, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Burger King AFD's

I'm sure you have seen it, but wanted to make sure that you knew that someone just tagged quite a few of the Burger Kings articles for AFD.--Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC 03:46, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Me kids logo.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Me kids logo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 02:22, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Deletion of "Working conditions" section from many fast food pages

Hi Jerem43. I wanted to know how I might be able to apply the information you deleted from these sections to their respective pages without having it deleted. Maybe adding it to a different section? I am uncertain to why the category and information was taken down. Your help would be much appreciated as I think the information was properly cited.

Thank you Wwiikkeeppeeddiiaa (talk) 06:46, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
