[edit] 524286?

I assume this number is the result of taking 2^19 and subtracting two degenerate cases - what are these? --Random|[[User talk:Random832|832]] 18:11, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Now, let's not get into an edit war. This section has ballooned in size and could stand to be seriously trimmed down. —Random832(tc) 01:50, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Whopper Jr

The Whopper Jr. does not warrant its own section, it is covered in the Variants section. If you would like expand upon the Jr., put its description in under the variant. I modified the food box so that you can put its values in. I know you wonder why I have changed it, so here are some reasons:

  1. The proper name for the sandwich is the Whopper Junior, BK does abbreviate it to Whopper Jr.;
  2. Remember to capitalize properly, e.g. The Whopper is a proper name, as are Whopper Junior, Chicken Tenders and Coke;
  3. Do not put pricing in as it varies from store to store;
  4. The comments such as "tasty," "famous" and "delights" are opinions or "peacock" statements and are not encyclopedic as per the MoS;
  5. The Value menu is localized, various items are different from market to market. The 4 pc Tender is one such localized item.
  6. There are several Wikilink errors.

Here is the text of your original entry: The Whopper Junior is a smaller variation of the Whopper. It allows the consumer to enjoy a smaller and healthier portion size. It has 290 calories and 12g of fat. Like the whopper, the Junior Whopper does not come with cheese and it is not uncommon to hear the phrase "With cheese", uttered after the order. The Whopper Junior is on the value menu, which is like McDonald's famous dollar menu. However, the addition of cheese adds another 40 cents to the price. It enjoys the company of various other delights on the value menu, such as four piece chicken tender and a small coke. It is very common to see more than one Whopper Junior purchased and eaten in a single sitting.

I am not trying to belittle you or your contributions, just let you know why I deleted your entry.
