Text and/or other creative content from this version of Sundae Bloody Sundae (slogan) was merged into McDonald's advertising with this edit on 23 June 2022. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

Current campaign > Translations > Literal

Doesn't it defeat the object of a "literal translations" table if the Spanish translations are both given as "I love it" (which is the rough translation of every single language), with literal translations in brackets after? 129.67.125.194 (talk) 16:59, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually in Spain the slogan is in English ("I'm loving it") and NOT in Spanish ("Me encanta todo eso") as it's said in the article. I knwow that in South America it's in Spanish, but not here. Someone can check it out and change the article. I'm not a registered user in the EN wikipedia so I prefer someone

History

History could be expanded - this article gives very little information on past campaigns. -KaJunl (talk) 00:51, 9 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Orange drink coolers

"The company also makes coolers of orange drink with their logo available for local events of all kinds." Is this US-only? (Never heard of it in the UK, though McD's has a large marketing presence here.) If so, should be noted. Equinox ◑ 22:46, 8 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Samuel L Jackson

He was added to the list of celebrity spokespeople back in 2011, saying that he advertised for McDonalds in 1972.

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=McDonald%27s_advertising&diff=447827307&oldid=440090612

I can't find any reference to it outside of this article, and it seems pretty unlikely McDonald's would hire an at that time virtually unknown actor to represent them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tobyink (talk • contribs) 11:33, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
