I've listed this article for peer review because I need to make it a featured list and have never worked on one. I need help.

Brianboulton:

Not really a full review, but a few questions and comments:-

  • The abbreviation "ad" is informal; should it be in the title?
  • Is it accurate to describe slogans as "programs"?
  • The lead section needs to be developed if it is to meet the requirements of WP:LEAD
  • The slogans list is described as a "partial history". Does this mean "incomplete list"? Is it intended to complete the list? Are the missing dates part of the incompleteness? Can it be assumed that other lists are considered "complete"?
  • Unless I am misunderstanding something, the references in the slogans list don't seem to cover all the detail in the list. Are there uncited sources?
  • Media tie-ins: Again, I am puzzled by the referencing. Some items have several references, others have none.
  • Ref 10 is not formatted. Ref 11 is incompletely formatted. I have not carried out an extensive references check.
  • The toobox on the right reveals three dead links.

Allot to answer to, so I will try to answer your questions to the best of my ability.

  • Ad and its plural ads, to my knowledge, are abbreviations that are widely used in the United States.
  • Slogans are part of programs, I hope to work to attach the slogans to the advertising agencies and ads they accompanied
  • The lead does stink, doesn't it? I'll work on that.
  • The very earliest ad programs from the 50's are not present because the company was local to Florida up to that point and there are very few sources available online.
  • The archived slogan page from Burger King is actually pretty comprehensive, but it is only up to 2006 or so.
  • I have been working to cite all of the tie-ins, which is taking a very long time because of the large expanse of the list. You can see where I've stopped - that is where the citations basically stop.
  • Some of the bare references were put in place by others. I am again working on those.
  • I haven't had the chance to work on the dead links, again very long time to get all of the references for all of the bullet points.

Besides the cites and lead, what else do you believe needs improvement? --Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 06:02, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Elaborate on Media tie-ins section
  • Slogans are just long lists - possibly add more context
  • Add links to particular ads if available
