message: I have learned from a broadcast of Hidden Chicago on PBS that the term Cafeteria was coined in Chicago. Yet, this article states that is of Spanish origin and coined in Los Angeles and another claims that it was coined in New York (Hutchinson Encyclopedia) Ishmael Rufus (talk) 06:27, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

message: I dont think that link is really anything to do with this article. Here in Spain a "cafetería" is a café or coffee shop elsewhere. Not the same thing at all as what this article is about. Rosa.blaus 09:13, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I took the liberty to remove one picture. In my opinion it was not a very good one because most of it was the back of a chair and the floor. Please put back if you like but an alternative would be better. Miguel Andrade 16:15, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't this article be Cafeteria without the (structure) part? I understand that there is an organism named Cafeteria, but really, wouldn't most people be looking for the structure anyway? If the genus does ever get its own article, we can link it from the top of this article. Do we really need a separate disambiguation page? Lusanaherandraton (talk) 21:32, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: No, you're quite right, we don't.  Creating the redirect has caused a load of misdirected internal links to the new dab page rather than to the original cafeteria article. I started fixing them, then engaged my brain properly and realised the only sensible solution was to send the original article back where it came from and disambiguate at the top of the page.  I'll sort it out (and undo my dablink "repairs", ho hum). Karenjc 17:35, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Disambiguation 

message: I've checked with the user who created this page and the dab page at Cafeteria, and he's fine with the proposed move back, so I've requested the move at Wikipedia:Requested moves. --Karenjc 19:13, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Sounds reasonable. With two candidates, it's enough to say For the microscopic organism, see Cafeteria (bicosoecid) and Cafeteria roenbergensis. on top of the article. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 20:22, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

text: Moved successfully. I think I fixed most of the links. Kopf1988 (talk) 20:50, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Requested move

message: We currently have five images of the table space in five different settings (including one historical), one image of cafeteria trays, and one image of a tray line. I'm wondering if perhaps it'd be appropriate to rearrange the images a bit, moving the cafeteria tray line server image to the top somewhere and bump one of the table space images down, since the tray line server image is in the see also section.

replies: text: , the article is overillustrated. It'd be fine to cut out or replace some of the lower-quality images if you or anyone else is up for it.  talk 20:54, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  I just 86ed four of them, let me know if you disagree with my choices on which ones to remove. I picked ones that I didn't think added much to the article. I was torn between removing the David Shankbone Colorado one and the Port Charlotte High one because the David Shankbone one was taken with a better camera, but the PCHS one shows a common concept not captured in the Shankbone one (a school food court/cafeteria).

message: "A cafeteria, sometimes called a canteen outside the U.S. and Canada"
That's a strange sentence.  It's sometimes called that inside the U.S. and Canada, too!
Merriam-Webster includes this definition of "canteen" in their dictionary, with no remark as to any regional variation. 2601:602:A080:1240:8887:99C1:C3AA:FF11 (talk) 05:41, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
