History of KFC[edit]
This article is about the history of KFC, the fast food chain. This article has previously had two FA nominations, first receiving 4 Supports and 1 Oppose, and secondly receiving 5 Supports and 1 Oppose. Both Opposes were from the same user and expressed concerns regarding a need to spotcheck the references. So I would ask contributors to focus on that! Thanks!

- Have you gone through and checked all the references yourself? Nikkimaria (talk) 12:40, 7 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. I will probably wind up opposing unless someone (maybe the nominator) checks all the references, and then a spotcheck is done after that. There were enough cases of close paraphrasing and of inaccurately representing what was said in the sources that I wouldn't be comfortable just trusting that they're all fine, until someone actually checks that they're fine. - Dank (push to talk) 13:14, 7 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Closing comment -- Actioning issues raised in previous FACs is a necessary part of the renomination process; on top of that there's been no activity here for the past 3 weeks, so I'll be archiving this shortly. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 05:27, 28 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
