  • Nice article, I found the fact it was a restaurant to be quite interesting/unique, heritage buildings often get rebuilt but a rotunda serving as a restaurant paints quite an interesting thought in my mind. Traumnovelle (talk) 07:06, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
  • Seconding Traumnovelle, my only comment is that the hook is a bit boring. I think a more interesting one might be something like ...that the small basement of the Edmonds Band Rotunda was once used as a kitchen?. And thank you for including my photo!

  • This looks more interesting than the hook presented in the nomination. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 11:44, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
  • I agree that your hook is better, Cloventt. I'll write it out for the next reviewer. ALT1:
"... that the small basement of the Edmonds Band Rotunda (pictured) was once used as a kitchen?" Source: https://canterburystories.nz/exhibitions/places-christchurch-band-rotundas/thomas-edmonds-band-rotundaPanamitsu (talk) 06:31, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
  • Tagging for a second review, given Nuggeteer's topic ban.  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 00:25, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
  • I was going to approve the new hook, but there are some issues: 1. the sentence supporting the fact lacks a footnote, 2. the source does not refer to the basement as "small", and 3. the article is in need of a copyedit for some minor grammatical errors.

  • Thanks for the review, Narutolovehinata5. I've added a citation to the end of the sentence supporting the hook, and have done some copyedits on the article. Here is ALT2, without the "small":
"... that the basement of the Edmonds Band Rotunda (pictured) was once used as a kitchen?"

Thank you, this should be good to go. Given the original reviewer's topic ban I did a second check of the article, as well as a check of the QPQ. @Panamitsu: I have to note that with your provided QPQ, you neglected to mention that nomination's QPQ in the review, but given that was the only thing missing and the article was still checked otherwise, I'll let it slide, with a reminder to mention a QPQ's need or if it was done in future reviewers.
