  • For the love of Jollibee, I'll be doing this review. It's getting late over here so I might have to save the full review for later, but so far, while the article is well-written, there are some typos in the article (like "changed customer tastes": shouldn't that be "changing customer tastes?").

    • Not in the context used, I would think. As is, could be construed that Smashburger was changing tastes as opposed to being harmed by changed tastes. —Ed!(talk) 01:36, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
  • Noted. There are still a few more typos here, like " But, the restaurant does not have a model footprint" (could probably do without the comma), "and booths, many also" (a semi-colon might be better here), "The beef that is fresh and not frozen" (should be "the beef is fresh and not frozen), "kosher salt black pepper and garlic" (needs one or two commas), among others. Earwigs detects no problems and the sources check out, but the full review will follow when the typos are resolved. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:25, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
    • OK, I've done a close copy-edit now. —Ed!(talk) 00:59, 25 February 2018 (UTC)

Everything checks out: it was expanded on time, article is adequately referenced and the references do back up the article's content, images are appropriately licensed, and Earwigs did not detect any significant problems. Of the two hooks, I prefer ALT1, although the source you gave doesn't explicitly state that, only implicitly (although I assume the Hofstetter reference also works for that). QPQ has been provided. ALT1 is approved for promotion. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 01:28, 26 February 2018 (UTC)

@Ed!: Also, there's a minor typo in the article: the article states that Jollibee buying a majority stake in the country would allow them to expand in Southwest Asia, but the source states that they plan to expand in Southeast Asia. Please correct/clarify. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 01:31, 26 February 2018 (UTC)
Fixed this! Good catch. —Ed!(talk) 03:55, 26 February 2018 (UTC)
  • The QPQ is inadequate. The article does not meet the minimum length requirement. Yoninah (talk) 23:17, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah: Have since corrected. Can this one go through now? Thank you! —Ed!(talk) 00:21, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
  • OK. Restoring tick per Narutolovehinata5's review. Yoninah (talk) 01:28, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
