Moved to mainspace by Michael Barera (talk). Self-nominated at 06:19, 25 June 2018 (UTC).
Article follows the criteria. It's new, long enough (~7267 characters), neutral, and cites sources. I enjoyed reading the first hook, but unfortunately it fails on its content as a hook is supposed to be "neutral and does not focus unduly on negative aspects of living people". George W. Bush falls under WP:BLP. However, ALT1 is neutral and doesn't shine on negative aspects of a living person. Other than that, it's worthy. FunksBrother (talk) 17:55, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
Hi, I came by to promote this. The hook is from the company's own website, which is fine, except it does sound a bit promotional. What do you think about describing some of the fare? For example:
- ALT2:
... that the Saturn Cafe (pictured) serves classic American diner food in an all-vegetarian menu, including breakfast burritos, club sandwiches, corndogs, burgers, and milkshakes?Yoninah (talk) 23:45, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
- I like it, Yoninah, although perhaps it would be better if shortened to...
- ALT3:
... that the Saturn Cafe (pictured) has an all-vegetarian menu inspired by classic American diner food? - What do you think? Perhaps with "consisting of" or something similar in place of "inspired by"? I'm fine with ALT2, but I think my proposal for ALT3 might be better due to its greater brevity.

- Yes, it is shorter, and it's fine. I just felt you could do more with it, especially if you want an image slot. I would have liked to play with it, like:
- ALT4: ... that the Saturn Cafe (pictured) serves classic American diner food without the meat and grease? Yoninah (talk) 00:10, 4 July 2018 (UTC)

That certainly works for me, Yoninah, and I agree that it is a bit more catchy and appropriate for a hook. If FunksBrother is OK with it, I think that this nomination can probably be approved. Michael Barera (talk) 18:17, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
- Michael Barera, I concur. FunksBrother (talk) 18:58, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks. @FunksBrother: can you give ALT4 a tick? Yoninah (talk) 19:35, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
