  • Nice article, I found the fact it was a restaurant to be quite interesting/unique, heritage buildings often get rebuilt but a rotunda serving as a restaurant paints quite an interesting thought in my mind. Traumnovelle (talk) 07:06, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
  • Seconding Traumnovelle, my only comment is that the hook is a bit boring. I think a more interesting one might be something like ...that the small basement of the Edmonds Band Rotunda was once used as a kitchen?. And thank you for including my photo!

  • This looks more interesting than the hook presented in the nomination. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 11:44, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
  • I agree that your hook is better, Cloventt. I'll write it out for the next reviewer. ALT1:
"... that the small basement of the Edmonds Band Rotunda (pictured) was once used as a kitchen?" Source: https://canterburystories.nz/exhibitions/places-christchurch-band-rotundas/thomas-edmonds-band-rotundaPanamitsu (talk) 06:31, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
  • Tagging for a second review, given Nuggeteer's topic ban.  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 00:25, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
  • I was going to approve the new hook, but there are some issues: 1. the sentence supporting the fact lacks a footnote, 2. the source does not refer to the basement as "small", and 3. the article is in need of a copyedit for some minor grammatical errors.

  • Thanks for the review, Narutolovehinata5. I've added a citation to the end of the sentence supporting the hook, and have done some copyedits on the article. Here is ALT2, without the "small":
"... that the basement of the Edmonds Band Rotunda (pictured) was once used as a kitchen?"
