Could you improve on this?

I asked a friend who has some coding skills (though not too much when it comes to wiki-code) to come up with an idea for the tracking chart for the new WP:WID2011. She was able to do this, which has the basic idea but is not so "user-friendly" when it comes to users adding the articles that they worked on without breaking the rest of the code. Is there anything you can do? Agne ^Cheese/^Wine 02:51, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

GA review of BK Products

Hi Jerem43, you probably don't know me here on Wikipedia, but anyway, I did the GA review for the Burger King Products article that you nominated. There is a lot of revisions needed, but mostly minor, so I will not fail the article, unless you cannot fix all of the issue within a week from now.--12george1 (talk) 02:09, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

Btw... (Thomcord grape GAC)

Thank you for claiming the Thomcord (grape) GAC. If you begin the review and I miss it in my watchlist, don't hesitate to drop a note on my talk page. I should respond in less than a day since I watch for it regularly, but sometimes things slip by. – VisionHolder « talk » 16:06, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Just to let you know, Dr. Ramming has reviewed the article and I have made corrections per his suggestions. As far as he knows, the article covers all available sources and is complete. – VisionHolder « talk » 19:04, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

I'm really sorry to bother you. I was just checking in on the review because I've got a host of articles coming up behind it that will be going through FAC soon, and since I don't have any at FAC at the moment, I was hoping to move this article along so it doesn't get stuck in my upcoming backlog. However, if you're busy and it may be another week or two, just say so. If I get annoying, feel free to trout me. :-) I'm sure I deserve it. – VisionHolder « talk » 15:40, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Burger King CE

I've doing a lot of Wiki stuff lately so need to reign it in. But I might be able to give you some help in a while. Would not wait for me, just letting you know. The corporate one would interest me more than the products one.TCO (talk) 22:48, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

looks like you are getting some help

I like corporate topics and actually knew someone who dealt with one of the re-orgs at BK at a very high level. My advice (think you have heard it before, but fresh pair of eyes, objective assessment): cut the lead in half. Keep the same number of paragraphs but make them half as long. It's really intimidating to see those big walls of text at the beginning. Remember, the whole article has to be comprehensive, but NOT the lead. There, you need to pick only the most salient matters. Also (this seems silly but would take it seriously), having two hatnotes or whatever at the top is distracting. That is PRIME real estate. And the reader looking at those two lines (and somehow two lines are harder to skip over than one) is not looking at your article. So add the mascot in the BK disambig, or just cut it.

Good luck. Fascinating topic and you obviously have a huge amount of detail and references. It's about making it more clean and organized. Really makes it easier on the reader...TCO (talk) 03:23, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

I hope my comments aren't coming across as overly critical. I think this topic is an especially challenging one to have written as good an article as you have.

Seeking your input on Gatorade revision

Hi Jeremy, I don't believe we've collaborated in the past, but I have seen your active presence on the Wikiproject Food and Drink, and was hoping that you might be able to weigh in on my proposed revision of the Gatorade article (as posted on the article's Talk page). I've sought out input on the WP Food and Drink Talk page, but it doesn't seem to be quite so active at the moment. Much of my work on this one has been inspired by your recent reorg of the Burger King article. All the best, Jeff Bedford (talk) 00:19, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

McDonald's

Jerem43-

I am contacting you on behalf of McDonald’s as I work on their communications team. First off, I wanted to thank you for the fantastic work you’ve done in keeping the McDonald’s Wikipedia page up to date and accurate. The page is very well written, shows your professionalism and exemplifies the credibility in using Wikipedia to learn about McDonald’s!

Second, while you seem to have things under control, I wanted to reach out to you to see if there’s any information or materials that we can provide you with to further enhance the page. For example, as McDonald’s continues to add new menu items and expand the number of operating restaurants around the world, we have a number of new facts and figures (nutritional information on products, number of operating stores worldwide, etc.) that you might find beneficial. Additionally, we’ve established a presence in the social media world on Facebook and Twitter that we’re increasingly relying on to interact with our customers. Whatever the case may be, please use me as a resource.

I look forward to hearing from you and thanks again! Egerstea (talk) 22:25, 15 February 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Egerstea (talk • contribs) 16:06, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Per the guidelines, a good or featured topic must included all articles on a particular topic and they must all be good articles, featured articles or featured lists.

Squab pie

Hi Jerem43. I've actually got the ingredients together and tried to make a squab pie. Well, actually I didn't have any flour to make pastry, so I created the pie base took the photo and changed it into a stew... So, we have an image on the page. It's not the best image, but it does illustrate the pie, and I'll be updating it when I get a new camera in a few months. Might even make the pie :D Can you have a look and see if you'd be happy to carry on the GA review? Worm 17:19, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

I was hust looking at that a couple of hours ago, I'll get on it this week. --Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 17:20, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi Jeremy, Just thought I'd give you a little nudge and ask how your review of Squab pie was coming along Worm^TT 11:18, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

Hey. Sorry to pester, but the Squab Pie GA has had a comment regarding the delay, wondering if you might get a chance to look at it over the next few days? Worm^TT 08:46, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

No need to apologize. Wikipedia should always be secondary to real life issues, and I had no problem with waiting - I've got more than enough to get on with. Thanks for calling it! Worm^TT 21:27, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

Ghostbusters template

Hey there,

It seems the rotating Ghostbusters quote template causes a slight problem. The section edit links on my talk page don't seem to be showing up. I was wondering if you could maybe take a look and see if some tweaking might fix that issue. Not a huge deal but I messed around with it a bit and can't seem to devise a fix. Thanks. IvoShandor (talk) 05:25, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Hahaha. Perfect. The t-shirt and the fix. Thanks! IvoShandor (talk) 15:22, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Template:Coffee

Hi, correct me if I'm wrong, but the category transclusion and nocat hack was removed in this edit? jonkerz ♠ 09:47, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Still not working, see Coffea charrieriana. {{Coffee}} is trancluded without the nocat paramenter, still the page doesn't show up in Category:Coffee. It is because everything on the /doc page is only included on the template's own page, but not on pages that transcludes the template. I'm leaving it untouched for the moment for you to see since <noinclude>, <includeonly> and <onlyinclude> can be tricky even for someone used to the syntax.

Thanks for the page update. Is it possible to make the tabs larger? I visit that page often, and I find it more difficult now to find where to click through to where I want to go. I had a look and I couldn't see how to do it. If it's not possible, then, no worries, I'll put it back to how it was. SilkTork *^YES! 12:56, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

I've temporarily restored the larger tabs until you can sort out a larger version of the new tabs. It makes navigation easier to have large clear tabs. SilkTork *^YES! 13:01, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Hey Jeremy, I had read on Tron Legacy's talk page before 2011 and wanted to bring up a point on the discussion but noticed that you had archived the page. However when I go the Tron Legacy's archives; Archive page 2 comes up blank but was created by you on January 31st. I was wondering if I'm reading this wrong or if the talk page might have been archived wrong. Thanks in advance Snump (talk) 02:32, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Re: Wendy's/Arby's

If and when the sale occurs, we then delete this template, as Template:Wendy's is all that would be needed. As it stands now the holding company is "Wendy's/Arby's", of which Wendy's International is a subsidiary. The name is not nor has it ever been "Wendy's Incorporated", so I don't know why you moved the navbox to that in the first place.

We also don't do anything removing Arby's until the sale is completed, per WP:CRYSTALBALL. They said theyre "exploring" a sale. In business speak, that doesn't mean it's a done deal; they may find that they won't get enough for it and change their minds. Wouldn't be the first time. oknazevad (talk) 14:19, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

Taco Bell

Hi Jeremy,

I'm not saying your verdict in the RFC closure was necessarily wrong, but I find myself questioning the wisdom of your decision to close it. Correct me if I'm mistaken, but I believe you were heavily involved in the discussion, and more or less arguing for one outcome, from the beginning. There were cogent, well-reasoned viewpoints presented by multiple editors on both sides of the fence, so consensus in either direction wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion. Please know that I am not questioning your good intentions when I suggest it would have been preferable for this RFC to be closed by an uninvolved party.

Cheers,
Rivertorch (talk) 07:28, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

While I was involved deeply in the conversation, the split on inclusion vs exclusion of the case was roughly 50/50 - no real consensus there despite there being several good arguments. However, it was conceded that the company's response was worthy of inclusion because of the wide and broad coverage of the company's advertising campaign countering the suit's allegations. The case was briefly mentioned but not in the way some wanted. Basically, everyone got a little of something, but not everything, as a result of the discussion. --Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 10:02, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

True enough, and all's well that ends well vis-à-vis the article's content. I was moved to comment purely on procedural grounds. The decision you made was sound, but the fact that you made it looked funny. <shrug> Rivertorch (talk) 18:52, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Overriding site-wide CSS definitions

Per this comment. It doesn't appear as though you didn't fully read the policy

In general, styles for tables and other block-level elements should be set using CSS classes, not with inline style attributes. This is because the site-wide CSS is more carefully tested to ensure compatibility with a wide range of browsers; it also creates a greater degree of professionalism by ensuring a consistent appearance between articles. Deviations from standard conventions are acceptable where they create a semantic distinction (for instance, the infoboxes and navigational templates relating to The Simpsons use a yellow colour-scheme instead of the customary mauve, to tie in with the dominant colour in the series) but should not be used gratuitously. — WP:Deviations

What you have done is added "inline style attributes" which override the "site-wide CSS" navbox class. There is no reason to do this, for several reasons (1) "Chicken chains" encompass a wide group of restaurants, all with their own logo color schemes, (2) even if it were a single reastaurant, there is no reason to believe that color scheme has sufficient color contrast to make it readable (see Wikipedia:COLOR), (3) even if it were readable, we are writing an encyclopedia, not making a marketing brochure, and (4) by overriding the "site-wide CSS" it prevents me (and others) from selecting a personal color scheme with better color contrast (e.g., User:Frietjes/vector.css). If you would like to discuss this further, I can start a thread at WT:Accessibility, so others can comment. Thank you. Frietjes (talk) 15:53, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

Re: Diet Pepsi in the sandbox

Hi Jeremy, thanks for your feedback here regarding the proposed revision draft of the Diet Pepsi article. I've made some tweaks to my userspace draft based on the suggestions you provided (removing about.com as a source, restructuring the intro to be in line with WP:LEDE guidelines). If you've got a few minutes, might you be able to take a look at the updated draft here? Cheers, Jeff Bedford (talk) 22:18, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Appreciate you looking this over -- with this edit, the updates are now reflected in the article. I also left a note on the article's Talk page so that others were aware of the input you provided. It seems to be a bit of a ghost town on that article's Talk page, but still, I thought it couldn't hurt to fill others in. Kind Regards, Jeff Bedford (talk) 15:57, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Very good -- I am taking the slow and steady approach to bringing related articles up to Wikipedia's standards. At first I was surprised with the lack of organized, cohesive and neutral writing among the notable food and drink articles, but I now realize that they are in fact very complicated subjects to describe in encyclopedic format. This seems to be true especially for products, brands or companies that have been around for 100+ years, and thus have a very complex and sometimes difficult-to-cite history. If you don't mind, I may seek your input in the future when I feel I've brought the next one up to par. Your recent recommendations on the intro section style have been particularly helpful.

IHOP Founders

Hi Jerem43, my name is Bruce Marsoobian and last year we corasponded briefly regarding my father, Pater Marsoobian as one of the founders of IHOP. It is true he was the Chef for the Company, but there is so much more about the man. My father is regarded by everyone connected with IHOP in the beginning as One of The Founders. He was there before the inception Of International House of Pancakes which was discussed with Al & Jerry Lapin. It was the 3 of them along side their wives in the long journey to open a Pancake House. I have spent time with my mother and have found some articles about my fathers contributions. I have also spoken to Al Kalis, also a founder of the Company and has expressed most emphatically, my father deserves to be mentioned along side Al & Jerry. Al Kalis has also talked with Jerry Lapin regarding this oversight and endorses this recognition. I also have a vcr video on the 45th anniversary of IHOP and a special presentation to my Father on his accomplishments. It is important not only for me, my friends and family, but for the future generations of Marsoobian's. I would appreciate any help in how to achieve my goal.Marsoobian4695 (talk)

P.S. I am rooting for your Bruins now that the Flyers are out, didn't they eliminate Boston last year? I'm a Flyer fan since 1973. Marsoobian4695 (talk) 23:40, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Speedy tagging revert

Hello - I have concerns with one of your edits, here, where you reverted the speedy deletion tag that I placed. Are you aware it is against Wikipedia policy to revert a speedy deletion tag on a category that you created? Looking at the page history, it appears as if this was not the first time you have done this. This was originally tagged for speedy deletion by someone else 6 months ago, but you claimed that the project was going through some sort of large merge at the time, so the declining admin "gave you the benefit of the doubt." As it's been over 6 months and still isn't populated, I see no reason why this category should stick around, as it fits within the WP:CSD#C1 speedy deletion criteria as it doesn't appear to be the type of category that is exempt. Please populate this category so it no longer qualifies for C1, or I am inclined to tag it for speedy again (where I would expect you don't revert/decline it yourself as per policy).

It is not that the source is in Spanish, it is unreliable because the source does not meet the standards of a reliable source; it is essentially a blog.

Hi Jeremy - Not too sure why my edits were considered "original research" - was it that I didn't post links to outside sources, of which there are many? or didn't sign my page? yes, things I should have done.

Merge tags

I am actually making edits with your last comment in mind. I am putting merge tags on articles on a case by case basis, as evidenced by my comments on articles' Talk pages. If you feel a more appropriate page for a merge target exists, please note such per merge suggestion. I was suggesting that article per your latest comment. I debated, BTW, whether to declare intent to mark pages first or to note them after the fact. Intent, however, often does to hold up under execution, and I am working in a good faith fashion in a developing situation, as I'm sure you are. Hopefully, with cooperative efforts from ourselves and other editors, a better Wikipedia will ultimately result. :-) ENeville (talk) 20:46, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

I have desisted adding tags for merging into Burger King products.

What a small world! If you're talking about the one next to the Kinko's, I used to go to that Burger King quite often.

Hi Jeremy. I noticed that you deleted a stale bot tag on the article James Suckling which I have been working on to get up to GA status and that you often review Food and Drink nominations. If you could review the article, I would be very grateful indeed - but obviously don't worry if you can't! Have a good day :) Jay _{Σεβαστός}^discuss 10:42, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

Reference quality

If you link to a source that would normally be considered "low quality" but the source contains documents or images of primary source information would that be considered acceptable? An example would be a fan site that contains images of products that you are referencing. Mitigating (talk) 18:17, 26 September 2011 (UTC)

Unfortunately such sites, regardless of the information they host, still will not meet the appropriate standards for reliable sources. The reason is because there is a lack of reliable verification of the factual accuracy of the information in question. --Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 05:49, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

Even if there is a photograph of an item (such as a cassette tape) that is being referenced? Example is http://www.pranceatron.com/jem/ovideous.html , this contains fully legible photographs/scans of video releases. Mitigating (talk) 05:59, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

It is considered an unreliable, primary source and wouldn't survive a challenge. --Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 04:50, 28 September 2011 (UTC)

Outline of cuisines

Is there anything about cuisines besides their type and their history that can be included in this article? The Transhumanist 01:27, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

Good edit

Good thinking with the edit on the Cheesesteak article. I agree it's trivial and really had no place there.--SexyKick 06:37, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

Jem article

I was wondering if you could take a look at the Jem television article one more time. The items you recommended were mostly fixed but I want to get more a list of more things that need to be done. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mitigating (talk • contribs) 00:13, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

BK in China

After a tour of China, I noted that Burger King had an unexpectedly large role there. Chain fast food, while itself a much smaller share of cuisine than in the US and strictly an urban phenomenon, is dominated by Burger King, who were supposedly about ten years ahead of other firms in penetrating this market; It is not directed at Westerners. The menu has been adapted enthusiastically, to the point that half of the dishes I couldn't be sure of the content. You seem to be one of the most prolific contributors on that topic, with a good grasp of the resources available. I was wondering if you'd be interested in adding a section - it seems notable to me. 130.85.80.117 (talk) 02:52, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

GA for Tea processing

Hi Jeremy, it possible for you to finish the GA Review at Talk:Tea processing/GA1? -- Sjschen (talk) 20:36, 31 October 2011 (UTC)

I was caught up with real life too. Sorry for the delay. I'll put in your suggestions this week. -- Sjschen (talk) 14:52, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

All the citations are in and some sentences came out. Hope this is good enough -- Sjschen (talk) 18:26, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store

Jeremy, thank you very much for taking the time to review the draft and move it over. I went looking for a template or barnstar to match the one you left on my page, only to find the "Thanks" template inadequate and the "Food and drink" template is your creation, so I decided to leave a friendly note instead. Thanks again, WWB Too (talk) 14:57, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

/Assessment needs to be capital "A"

Hi- in the Template:WPFOOD, the /Assessment pgs need to have a capital "A" (see tmp code), because you don't want to have a redirect to the assessment pgs within the template, so I moved the Beverage TF assess pg. Are there any others that have a lower case? Thanks, --Funandtrvl (talk) 15:38, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

In the WPFOOD banner template, the class /Assessment link has been a capital "A" since 28 November 2006, when the class parameters were added to the template. When the Assessment link is not specified in the WPBannerMeta template, the default is a capital "A", see the code here:

|ASSESSMENT_LINK     = {{#switch:{{{ASSESSMENT_LINK|}}}
  |<!--NULL--> = {{#ifexist:{{#if:{{{PROJECT_LINK|}}}
      |{{{PROJECT_LINK}}}
      |Wikipedia:WikiProject {{{PROJECT}}}
    }}/Assessment
    |{{#if:{{{PROJECT_LINK|}}}
      |{{{PROJECT_LINK}}}
      |Wikipedia:WikiProject {{{PROJECT}}}
    }}/Assessment

Thus, my point is that the project and each TF /Assessment pg needs to be capped, or the assessment link needs to specified each time for the project and any TFs with the lower case assessment link. (which would make the WPFOOD template larger, with more code, than really needs to be.) In the instructions, "ASSESSMENT_LINK – the link to a WikiProject-specific quality (and/or importance) scale. If there is a page at "Wikipedia:WikiProject <PROJECTLINK>/Assessment" then this will be used by default. To override this, you can set this parameter to no." For more details, see: Template:WPBannerMeta/Assessment link. --Funandtrvl (talk) 04:15, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

Talk:PepsiCo/GA1

This is beyond a joke, Dragging out this review over three and a half months. Perhaps you have not read Wikipedia:Reviewing good articles#Assessing the article and providing a review: If instead, the article has problems, you need to decide whether to fail the article (leaving a detailed review), or place it on hold. Many of the considerations concerning "quick-failing" apply here. As the nominal hold period is one week (this is a suggestion, not a requirement) one rule of thumb is to consider whether the issues you have raised could reasonably be fixed within such a timescale. If that is possible, then the article should be placed on hold. If you decide not to place the article on hold, ensure your review provides detailed advice for improvement, and encourage editors to renominate the article once the problems have been fixed. If you wish to continue working with the nominee, then please do so, but please do not abuse the process. "The Good article (GA) process is intentionally lightweight", not an interminable drawn out nightmare. Jezhotwells (talk) 03:34, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

For the record, your actions are being discussed at WT:GAN. --Rs chen 7754 06:14, 6 December 2011 (UTC)

Enjoy!

Breawycker has given you some Potato pancakes! Potato pancakes promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. You can spread the WikiLove by giving someone else some Potato pancakes, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Happy Hanukkah!

Thanks for moving this into the template space!

To spread the goodness of Potato pancake, you can add {{Potato pancakes}} to someone's talk page with a friendly message!

Cracker Barrel follow-up

Hi there, Jeremy. Thanks for weighing in at COI/N about Cracker Barrel; it is very appreciated. The only other thing I had to say is that I was surprised you didn't know I was working with them, and I hope you don't feel I wasn't fully forthcoming with you. At Food and drink I'd said I had "written it at Cracker Barrel's behest", and then linked to the article's discussion page, where I had stated my COI in no uncertain terms. Anyway, you didn't seem upset in your comments, but I just wanted to be sure. Once again, thanks very much. Cheers, WWB Too (talk) 15:44, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

Broken link - "Evaporated Milk" article

Not being an editor I don't know how to fix this myself or the correct way to request someone else to do it. The bottom "External Link" in the "Evaporated Milk" article is supposed to go to a site called whatisguide.net, but the domain has expired. Hope you can help as you seem to have an interest in food articles. Many thanks Richard — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.56.32.174 (talk) 19:58, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
