Talk:Denny's

message: This section clearly states the class action lawsuit settlement occurred in 1994, however the incidents after it which "all occurr[ed] after the settlement" includes one which happened in 1993. Which is it? --Shawn K. Quinn (talk) 02:03, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Apparent error in the section "Racial discrimination lawsuits" 

message: One of Denny's franchisees announced that they would add a 5% surcharge to all checks to help pay for the additional costs resulting from Obamacare. (See this as an example) It was covered by a variety of sources. There are currently three trains of thought regarding how, or if, this information should be added to the article:
Option 1: Include a long description of the issue. An example of a proposed addition to the article:
:In November 2012, John Metz of RREMC Restaurants LLC of West Palm Beach, Fla., a franchisee that operates Denny’s and Dairy Queen, said that in response to the Obama Administration's Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare"), he was considering adding a 5% surcharge to checks, and suggested that guests decide whether to reduce the waiter tips by that amount. 
:John Miller, Denny’s chief executive, said that this was the decision of a franchisee, not the corporation. “Unfortunately, the comments of this franchisee, who represents less than 1 percent of our system and who owns restaurants in other concepts, has been portrayed as reflective of the entire Denny’s brand,” Miller said. 
 
:Metz issued a retraction, saying that his position was not representative of the Denny’s brand or of other franchisees, which they are not.”  
 
:“Our stores do not have a 5-percent surcharge,” Metz said in a statement. “RREMC Restaurants is committed to exploring viable and effective ways to deal with the changing economic climate, including the implementation of the Affordable Care Act. We have always been and will continue to be 100-percent dedicated to our employees and customers and will work tirelessly to find solutions that are in their best interests. It is our intention is to fully comply with the law."Health care views cause clash between restaurant companies, franchisees, Ron Ruggless, Nation's Restaurant News, Nov. 20, 2012 
Option 2: Include a short description of the issue in the Controversy section. An example of a proposed addition to the article:
:In November 2012, John Metz of RREMC Restaurants LLC of West Palm Beach, Fla., a franchisee that operates Denny’s and Dairy Queen, said that in response to the Affordable Health Care for America Act, he was considering adding a 5% surcharge to checks. John Miller, Denny’s chief executive, said that this was the decision of a franchisee, not the corporation.Health care views cause clash between restaurant companies, franchisees, Ron Ruggless, Nation's Restaurant News, Nov. 20, 2012
Option 3: Do not mention the issue at all in the article.
-----
*Option 2 I believe that since the information is covered in a number of reliable sources, the issue should be described in the article. However, I think it is a very small issue within the scope of Denny's as a whole. The decison which sparked the coverage was by a franchisee of 30 locations, which is less than 2% of the company's locations. Also, the company itself denounced the decison as not being representative of the company. I will re-quote WP:UNDUE: "...discussion of isolated events, criticisms, or news reports about a subject may be verifiable and impartial, but still disproportionate to their overall significance to the article topic. This is a concern especially in relation to recent events that may be in the news. Note that undue weight can be given in several ways, including, but not limited to, depth of detail, quantity of text, prominence of placement, and juxtaposition of statements." I think this perfectly describes this situation, where a flurry of reporting was made in a short period of time, but is very low in the overall significance to the topic of the article, namely the Denny's corporation. The other proposed edit in option 1 is approximately 13% of the article, which is much too great for this issue. I suggest 1-3 sentences max to explain the situation, but avoid going into great detail. Angryapathy (talk) 15:27, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Survey

message: This article states: "There is also a Denny's attached to the Holiday Beach Hotel in Otrabanda, Willemstad, Curaçao in the Netherlands Antilles.[9] Along with the regular Denny's Menu, the Curaçao restaurant offers a selection of local ("kriyoyo") dishes. There are also about 578 Denny's restaurants in Japan operated independently under a license by a subsidiary of Seven & I Holdings." The restaurants in Japan don't serve anything like the "regular Denny's Menu" (assuming this is the menu in U.S. restaurants) although there are some things that aren't too way out there.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.51.66.32 (talk) 23:07, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Regular Menu? 

message: I would like to see information about Denny's Cocktail Lounges and the chain's acquisitions of other chains in the 1980s. A discussion of the fact that many stores are franchised, while others are corporate, would also be more appropriate than discussing modern egg propaganda and arguing about covering one store's healthcare blah blah blah. Other missing information relevant would be current number of stores, sales numbers and stock performance history, Denny's opposition to cigarette prohibition in Arizona and Florida, examples of menu changes through the years,etc. More history, less recent corporate spin. --Vic, a Denny's employee from 1998-1999.107.4.103.90 (talk) 14:58, 13 August 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Denny's opening restaurants in Germany is very likely a hoax (a big one), because as of Dec. 11th 2017, not only the Facebook page has been deleted, but also some linked-to youtube videos, plus, both registered websites (dannydeutschland.com and de-danny.com) have been suspended, very likely by Denny's Inc., Spartanburg, itself.
Many media fell for that, just citing the Facebook page (which is now blank).

thread_title:  Denny's Germany is probably a hoax 

message: Hello, everyone. I lead Digital Marketing at Denny's and along with some folks on our Legal team, have found some potential edits for the team to consider. Main considerations: 1. updates to info box, 2. updates to menu items served, and 3. some local, franchisee-specific news stories that made it onto the main national company page. Pinging  because this editor closed the prior request for comment re: including content about individual franchisees.

thread_title:  Proposed edits from Denny's 

message: On May 2019, CBS46 news tried to interview Denny’s employees over a bad Health inspection. When interviewed, they told the news crew to stop recording & they tried to attack the cameraman. The manager of that Denny’s had taken action against the employees. The same restaurant closed in December of that year. GuyUser81 (talk) 23:26, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
