Howard Johnson's: Revision history

8 July 2024

• curprev 19:1319:13, 8 July 2024‎ Apple2gs talk contribs‎ 50,407 bytes +24‎ Opening paragraph, more background on restaurants; changed "is" to "was" (I suspect the younger demographic never heard of the restaurants, recognition shrinking yearly) undo

• curprev 07:1707:17, 4 July 2024‎ Apple2gs talk contribs‎ 50,292 bytes +412‎ Restored number count of hotels back to annual year report (current count as per December 31, 2023 is: 285); the current number count fluctuates month to month, even weekly sometimes. Unless we want to manually update the article every few weeks, best to have an end of year count only. If someone can add a script to automatically read the counter from external website, feel free to use that instead. Otherwise it's too arbitrary a given count undo
• curprev 07:0707:07, 4 July 2024‎ Apple2gs talk contribs‎ 49,880 bytes +8‎ Re-title section to demise of HoJo restaurants (only covers FAI era until its fade out in the 21st century; there is a whole history of the restaurants thriving otherwise from 1920's through to mid-80's) undo

Changed sub-title name for consistency (this new section seem to only cover the restaurants after their sale, more of a telling of their demise than a history; will require more tweaking or reverting back) undo
• curprev 06:5306:53, 4 July 2024‎ Apple2gs talk contribs‎ 49,882 bytes −117‎ Rewrote and tweaked opening paragraph to read better (removed unimportant mention of "Howard Johnson International Inc" trade name; perhaps move that to the infobox if necessary information) undo
