3 articles

Contributor(s): Jeremy

These three articles are the first in a series of Burger King articles which have achieved good article status. The company is one of the largest global fast food restaurant chains. I am working on at least two more that are currently at B-Class to add to the group as well. My hope is to bring the four core articles to FA-Class by summer 2011.

Oppose cherrypicking. Nice work, but History of Burger King, Burger King franchises, and Burger King advertising obviously need to be included, and possibly also List of countries with Burger King franchises and List of Burger King ad programs. Nergaal (talk) 08:49, 29 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose as cherrypicking; this is far by a complete topic, and as Nergaal points out, many more articles should be included. Arsenikk ^(talk) 17:04, 29 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - This isn't cherry picking, these are the first three that I've taken to GA and I am still working on the others. I was under the impression that only GA-class or better articles could be part of a GT. Is it okay to include the B-Class articles? The other articles three articles are all B-Class. The lists are are a mess, with the list of ad programs the better of the two, but still a bit off from FL status. I'll amend it to include the others--Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 18:50, 29 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That's exactly what cherry-picking is. You have to include all of the articles that fit in the topic, not just the GA+ ones. And yes, they do all need to be GA's or better. --Pres N 07:10, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
