Article title

[edit]

As far as I can tell from the article, it seems these were only ever marketed or sold as "burger shots". So why is the article titled "Burger King sliders"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.169.37.118 (talk) 14:59, 30 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

They were also sold as Burger Bundles, Chicken Bundles, Burger Buddies, and BK Breakfast Shots. The article will eventually be expanded to cover all of these - once I have finished expanding the other articles in the Burger King products portfolio. --Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 07:26, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

An article's lead section

[edit]

This article's lead section now reflects conformance with MOS:BOLDTITLE and infobox consistency with other Wikipedia articles. To avoid confusing readers, infoboxes should be titled/named consistent with the subject of the article – in this case Burger King sliders – and should contain information about that more general subject, not just about one particular variation of that subject. The image is indeed a photo of the "BK Burger Shots", so the image caption reflects this. Jerem43, I've noted other articles about similar subjects that begin with "International fast-food restaurant chain Burger King..." rather than by using the Manual of Style guideline for emphasis in the lead. Since you appear to be much more of an involved editor in these articles than I am, you will hopefully consider how much less confusing it is for readers when there is consistency where the article title, the subject of the lead sentence and the name of the Information box are concerned, and improve the leads of those articles, as well, in a similar way. Be prosperous! Paine  03:14, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The article is not about a specific product but a family of products that are all related because they are all sliders. There never was a Burger King product called sliders, hence the name of the article only having the company's name capitalized. The menu box is for the last version of the product sold by the company, BK Burger Shots (note the capitalization). --Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 11:08, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'll have to concede that there is nothing in the infobox guideline that tells us that infobox names absolutely must be consistent with the title of the article. That seems to be the point with which you disagree, and it's not that big a deal. And yet the MoS guideline I cited about the use of the article title as the subject of the lead sentence and in bold is still the community consensus, so why did you also revert that part of the edit?  Paine  18:19, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Since there does not seem to be any objection to making the lead paragraph MOS:BOLDTITLE compliant, it is done. Be prosperous! Paine  19:06, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
TYVM, My main issue was your change to the infobox.--Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 01:30, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Pleasure! Paine 

Article structure

[edit]

Hello all, just a quick note on why there are several empty sections in this article. For the past few years I have been trying to get all of the Burger King articles to GA status to create a Good Topic, and I am currently working my way through the product articles. As I bring these articles to GA status, I have found a format that presents the information in the best way. To this end, I have begun setting up the articles in that format in preparation for working on them. These empty sections are placeholders for the new sections I intend to add.

I am currently working on the Big King article, and plan to hit this one afterwards. I am currently enrolled in school, and will not be getting to this one until the winter break and finish the Big King article. Any help is greatly appreciated! --Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 19:55, 12 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
