Point out the irony

I assume this article is a joke, but many may miss the irony. -91.104.99.188 14:49, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Name change?

Has the name of the building changed in the last year? I am confused, as the Image:20070110 Rock & Roll McDonald's (3).JPG taken in January 2007 seems to suggest that the name is "Rock & Roll McDonald's". Seth Whales (talk) 19:18, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Tear Down?

They're tearing the damn thing down. Why no mention of that?

It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
I would suggest that there are two many images, but I will not de-list it on that basis.
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
