Burger King advertising[edit]

Previous peer review

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because I am looking to bring it to GA status and complete the set of articles to bring the subject to good topic status. A fresh pair of eyes would help substantially.

Comments - a vast article so I'll probably give comments from a top level and re-review if requested.
  • If you insist on referring to the company as BK, at least put (BK) after the first time you mention Burger King.
  • Infobox has spaced hyphens, it should use spaced en-dashes (per WP:DASH).
  • This is the case throughout the article as well, I'll try to pick up some of the as I go.
  • infobox, Fast Food is not a proper noun, Fast food is fine.
  • "ad agencies" -> "advertising agencies"
  • " flop Where's Herb?." avoid double period.
  • "1970s/1980s " 1970s and 80s.
  • "Where is your God now?." avoid double period.
  • "the 18-35 demographic" needs an en-dash.
  • From the TOC, what's going on with the section headings? Looks like something needs to be fixed here.
  • Also not sure why you're only allowing level 1 headings, at least allow level 2.
  • You link Star Wars twice to different articles, perhaps consider the second link being Star Wars series or something.
  • "The relationship with George Lucas' Lucasfilm, LTD." don't think you need George Lucas' here...
  • "in which Gellar stated that" in which she stated..
  • "of a whopper" shouldn't whopper be capitalised here?
  • There is also an article on it.
  • Images, like the Van Eede one, should be either just thumb for landscape or thumb|upright for portrait images. Don't force images any bigger/smaller in the main article.
  • General Market -> General market.
  • "1958–68 - Hume" should be an en-dash before Hume (see others).
  • "2001–2002" should be "2001–02" to be consistent.
  • Heading - Modern Campaigns -> Modern campaigns (per WP:HEAD).
  • "One of it major" its.
  • Rewrite "Other media" section so it's prose rather than bullet points.
  • "May 1, 1969-April 30, 1994" spaced en-dash needed here.
  • circular is a dab link.
  • You use HJ without explanation.
  • Is it worth a minor note explaining why Hungry Jacks is used instead of Burger King in certain locations?
  • Is the Children's logo section a different format to the others? The text is smaller. Be consistent.
  • What does QSR mean?
  • Second para of Non-product oriented advertising is unreferenced.
  • Children's advertising section is woefully lacking in references.
  • A lot of detail on the individual members of the Kid's Club characters, probably a little over the top.
  • Media Tie-ins -> tie-ins.
  • "McDonald's\Ty Beanie Babies" odd angled slash, surely /?
  • Don't mix date formats in the references.
  • Ensure online references are comprehensive, i.e. have publisher info, access dates, etc. (e.g. look at ref 69, it has nothing)
  • Publications like Time should be in italics.
  • Many external links appear unnecessary for this specific article.
