Talk:Hungry Jack's

message: There's an entry about a Jukebox and playing 50's music in Hungry Jack's stores, down the bottom of '2002 to the present day'. I have been in many of Melbourne's Hungry Jack's Stores and find this rather odd, as I have seen nor heard nothing of the sort. Is it a regional thing, does anyone know? Because from my personal experience (and the fact the addition seems a poorly attempt at a new section in the article) I don't think it has any basis in fact. - 12:15, January 22 2010, Curious Reader  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.241.13.185 (talk) 13:16, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

message: Hello,
The user Michaelbeckham recently made a unilateral decision to excise a large section of the Burger King article, delete the redirect from Hungry Jack's to the BK page and place all about HJ information from the BK article  on to the former redirect page. This edit was done without consulting any other editors and see if there was consensus about doing this. He also failed to properly note the move and the reasons for the move in the edit log and failed to correct any redirect errors that were created as a result of the move. I have reinstated the text and am asking that Michael please refrain from doing this again without first posting an appropriate discussion on this page about this type of move.
If you would like to move section to a new article, please take the following steps:
# Tag the section with the  template
# Create the discussion on the proper talk page
# Wait for consensus
While understand his reasoning for the move, from personal experience I know that an editor must follow the Wikipedia guidelines when making major changes to the structure of an existing article so that other contributors work can be properly credited, that the changes are done following accepted consensus and why doing something like this improperly can cause issues (like on the BK products section move in April of this year).

replies: text: Consensus is fine in some cases, but there is enough material to move to its own article. It is notable and a separate entity. I am puzzled why its part of the BK article in the first place seeing as they have separate ownerships. - Mike Beckham 08:32, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hungry Jacks is different enough, has enough content and is notable enough for its own article. Not a section on this. I see no GOOD reason to not move it. Unless you can get a consensus against it, I think it is time for it be moved. - Mike Beckham 03:22, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

text: There is no consensus or even any interest either way. Your the only one contesting a move. - Mike Beckham 04:58, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

message: The result was split. Non- admin close by Jeremy (blah blah)
It has been proposed that the Hungry Jack's section of this article be moved into its own article by 
Mike Beckham. Please take this time to comment on the proposal. Please remember that there must be a consensus for the move, not against it.

message: Remove the statement "All Australian outlets are now under the Hungry Jack's name."  This may have been the case for a long time, but sadly, Burger King branded outlets have started appearing in recent years.  There are several in Melbourne's CBD alone.

replies: text: Most shops in Australia were Hungry Jacks until recently. How recently? Wouldn't know. I haven't seen any that have changed unless they've been renovated which isn't many in my area, except for new shops. I think some were actually changed back to HJ. Can anyone else confirm this? In my area (Gold Coast, QLD,Australia) they are all HJs. rmccue 06:51, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

If this is true then there should be two separate articles. It may also explain why Burger King labeled stores have popped up in Melbourne CBD as noted by another commenter above.--ZayZayEM 06:22, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

message: To anyone interested Habbo Group: Hungry Jack’s®. Not worthy of adding it to the main article right? The group is now "closed" anyway. It was just an ad. Hintswen  Talk | Contribs  01:53, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

message: Is there any proof online that Hungry Jack's is often referred to as Hungry's? I've never met anyone who has called it that, unless it's a regional nickname in some cities or states? "Scungie Scraps" doesn't get a mention, but it's certainly a wide-spread, commonly used term. I'm not going to revert anything, but I think it would be wise to show a bit of proof that "Hungry's" is a commonly used term. -- Smacca | Talk 05:25, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

message: I would like to get a yes or no vote on adding the Pay Dispute to the article, one of the editors removed the edit I added under good faith, but should it be returned?
http://news.ninemsn.com.au/national/8236329/hungry-jacks-fined-for-underpaying-staff
In April 2011 the Fair Work Australia Ombudsman fined Hungry Jack's $100,500 after they admitted to underpaying 693 of its Tasmanian employees a total of $665,695 between 2006 and 2008 in the Federal Magistrates' Court in Melbourne.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amckern (talk • contribs) 06:29, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
